[rancid] Rancid not sending svn e-mail diffs

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your quick response.
I understand that Rancid is not responsible for e-mail issues.

Only the weird thing is, the e-mail part is actually working, because what I DO receive is the following (everytime I add or delete a router).
That’s why I would think something is wrong in my Rancid configuration.

Subject: changes in core routers

Routers changed to up:
       device3;juniper

Added routers:
       device3;juniper


/etc/aliases:

root at rancid:~# cat /etc/aliases
# See man 5 aliases for format
postmaster:    		root
rancid-core:		my.e-mail.address
rancid-admin-core:	my.e-mail.address

root at rancid:~# /usr/sbin/newaliases
WARNING: local host name (oxidized) is not qualified; see cf/README: WHO AM I?
/etc/mail/aliases: 3 aliases, longest 18 bytes, 78 bytes total
root at rancid:~# su - rancid
rancid at rancid:~$ /var/lib/rancid/bin/rancid-run

configs:

rancid at oxidized:~$ ls /var/lib/rancid/core/configs
device1	device2	device3
