Failed email notification when task triggered from windows scheduler
Using ATI Home 2010, Windows 7 64 Pro.
I like to have my PC wake from sleep every night to run a few Acronis tasks. To accomplish this the windows scheduler wakes the PC to run the appropriate acronis script. The jobs work fine, and the post-backup script I have set to put the machines back to sleep also function as designed.
What does NOT work is the email notification. Nothing is sent. If the task is triggered manually or via the ATI scheduler it work fine, and the email is sent.
Email is only not sent when the task is triggered from the Windows Scheduler. It's not the email settings or anything like that, as notification works otherwise.
Help.

I also have the exact same results as David. The email notification (as well as the backup and validation functions) work fine if the Acronis task runs manually, or if it runs via time schedule. However, if the same Acronis task is run via windows scheduler, either manually or set to wake up and run, the email notice does not happen, and no error in log. The backup and validation functions still work fine!
The 4 items discussed by Dmitry in reply #1 do not seem to apply.
1) If I put the < and > around the email address, it is rejected. Even the "send test email" fails! The name and password are filled in, for authentication.
2) The additional parameters are blank as described.
3) Failure is the same, even with firewall and antivirus disabled. Any way if this were the trouble, it should also fail if run without windows scheduler, but as stated, that works fine.
4) Same here, should fail either way.
Would it be possible for some post processing code in the acronis task to send the email? I assume the log info is still available at post processing time.
Any other suggestions? And, can the post processing code be used to shut down the computer? That option is only available on a manual run of the acronis task.
Thanks for any advice .... Bob

EDIT:
Is perhaps anyone familiar enough with Windows scheduler to have some advice on this, since the notify only fails in that case, as described above ??
Thanks again...... Bob

OOPS!
I should have put this in a separate post.
I'm learning!! Sorry.
