SCRIPT!!!!!!!!!

/system script add name=backup source={/export file=([/system identity get name] . "-" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6]); \
/tool e-mail send to=backups@domain.com subject=([/system identity get name] . " Backup " . \
[/system clock get date]) file=([/system identity get name] . "-" . [:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".rsc"); :delay 10; \
/file rem [/file find name=([/system identity get name] . "-" . [:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".rsc")]; \
:log info ("System Backup emailed at " . [/sys cl get time] . " " . [/sys cl get date])}
{
:global namE;
:set namE ("<".[/sys identity get name]."@domain.com>");
/tool e-mail set server=192.168.0.2 from=$namE;
:put $namE;
}
/system scheduler
add name="sched_backup" on-event="backup" start-date=jan/01/1970 start-time=07:30:00 interval=7d \
comment="" disabled=no

I'd start by simply replacing the "from=$namE" with "from=<a known address>" to see if it's a function call or variable issue. You could also try a ":log info $namE;" right before the call to see what is actually in the $namE variable in case you have something wrong there.

I also think in my scripts that the external "<" and ">" in the from address are not required.

Cheers, Dominic.

Thanks friend I include ":log info $namE;" and in the log it told me the from address was having space in between and after changing it its no longer bringing the error in log....

Thank you so much....if you can share the script that's working for you that will be great too....http://forum.mikrotik.com/posting.php?m ... =9&t=60389#

no worries. TBH I use email in most of my scripts for failover monitoring and other such stuff ... glad you are sorted. Dominic.
