Feature Request: E-mail Settings - Have Subject settings apply to Daily Reports and other notifcations from VBR server.

Post by TimLawhead »

The E-Mail Settings Subject field seems to only apply to Job alerts. My Daily Reports don't include the Subject changes.

I use email rules for all sorts of systems and like to setup rules to manage the influx of notifications. I am limited to what the From email address can be. This allows me to define a rule to catch all emails from that account, but I prefer to put the VBR's server name as the first part of the Subject name and then direct emails based off the Subject contents to my desired email folders.

Current E-mail Settings -> Subject field:

"VBRServerName Alert [%JobResult%] %JobName% (%VmCount% machines) %Issues%"

The daily reports come in with subjects like: "[Failed] Health check (1 objects) 1 failed" or a test email gets a subject "Veeam Backup and Replication."

I'd prefer these to be:

"VBRServerName [Failed] Health check (1 objects) 1 failed"
"VBRServerName Veeam Backup & Replication"

Hello Tim,

We appreciate your feedback.
Email Notification Settings have some variables in the Subject, but I understand that it can be not enough for your purposes.
We will discuss this improvement for the next Veeam B&R releases.

Thank you.
