Error message whiel running backup on FOSS 7.x

[drdre]

hi all,

I am using the backup script "Yet Another Backup Script for Community Version"

Now since that thread is so long i decided to start this thread.

I am backing up to a usb external hard drive that is at /media/Backup1/zFinalBackups and i am using ubuntu 10.04LTS. when i check the zim_backup.log in the /var/log folder i get the occasional error :

"Tue Jun 28 23:00:02 AST 2011
Performing DIFF backup
============================
Required directory /media/Backup1/zFinalBackups/ not found!
sh: sendmail:/usr/sbin/sendmail: not found

sh: sendmail:/usr/sbin/sendmail: not found
"

First off i am confused on how it cant find the directory when i can browse to the directory using the file manager and the konsole... plus when i check the folder on the backup drive i am see backups done with the proper time stamps.

And also the sendmail error is odd.

Any ideas or advice will be greatly appericated.
