I'm new at this also but while I was setting up my backup system, I noticed
some documentation about automated emails with several of the Retrospect
functions. (version 4.2) I have not tried it yet but I intend to as soon as I
get some time.
I am also interested in hearing opinions about the Onstreams tapes. (that's the
ADR tape, right?) If it's fairly stable, it sounds like a good alternative to
DLT.
