Strange behaviour in Notifications.
in TI 2019 I have 7 different backups, containg either Computer, Volume, or Directory.
All notification control info for the different backups is identical. I created them by using copy and paste from a help file.
All backups target to local H:\<backup name>\
Creating test notifications works well for 6 backups, while it gives an error for one of the directories.
(Translated from German) : Send of test notification failed. Network error. Check the specified e-mail settings.
BTW: I do not see sence in the check mark "store as standard". How can the standard be used in a different backup control?

Yes, all tasks use exaxcty the same notification:
TO: <me>
REF: "Acronis: %BACKUP_NAME%: %OPERATION_STATUS%"
SERVER: smtp.1und1.de; Port 587; TLS, if possible
SMTP-AUTH.: <me> <password>
No login at the mail input server.

I re-checked the "exactly" and found a trailing blank, not visible in the form, behind the server name of the problematic item.
My fault!
Sorry, Steve for your wasted time!

Peter, personally this should have been handled within the ATI code as all programming languages provide functions to strip trailing or leading blanks from strings during processing! I would recommend submitting Feedback with a link to this forum topic to Acronis for this issue - it should be a very simple fix to make!
