Re: how to get rid of useless information in mail
To change / get rid of these messages check the following :
- Do your printers use your machine as syslog-server ? IF yes, disable this feature ( do a telent to your printer or use jetadmin ...)
- As far as I remember the printer-stuff uses lpr0/local as syslog-priorities, and it could be that on your machine this redireted to be sent via mail Check /etc/syslogd.conf for your syslogd - configuration, check what is sent via mail !
Hope it helps,
christian

Solutiongenerated and we needed to clean them up fast so I
came up with this script. The SUBJECT of the messages
needs to be unique in order for this to work.
Place the subject you want to cleanup in a file named
mail.filter in the same dir as this script. You can strip out
all the question/response items once you feel it does the right thing.
I'm sure there are more eloquent ways to do it, but this
gets the job done.
Hope it helps!

Re: how to get rid of useless information in mail
Thanks a lot for your quick responses and helpful suggestion, I have solved the problem according to Steve, but I still have question for Christian.
Yes, I am using JetAdmin(Rev. D.06.21), those printer informatin came from HPDPS server. But how can I know the printers are using my host as Syslog server, and how to disable it?
From telnet, the configuration for Syslog SERver is 0.0.0.0.
From JetAdmin
2) Diagnostics
5) View HP JetDirect interface's current configuration
no Syslog Server information there.
