I assume the mailto link is sowe crap inserted by your mailer?
Also there shouldn't be a space between the colon and the /usr/trafd, and
you'd need a -r flag to recursively do it.

Also , tell us what error you got - I'd assume you aren't allowed to ssh as root into

try rsync, that's much faster than scp:

rsync -vaz -e ssh /home/www/trafd [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/trafd
