E-Mail Parameters - ACRONIS DRIVE MONITOR User Manual


You may receive messages when a critical event/warning appears. Such messages will be sent
when a problem occurs, and no new alerts will be sent until a system status is restored to OK, or
a problem becomes more serious for the disk. This option is enabled by default.
 You may receive regular disk status reports with specified periodicity (see Regular reports
schedule (p. 23) section for details).

check box in the bottom of the page selected, scheduled tasks will continue running after you exit
the program, e.g. when monitoring in the background is disabled, scheduled tasks will not run while
the console is closed.This option is selected by default.
You can also specify whether you want a status icon to be shown in the tray while monitoring in the
background (enabling this option is available only with Enable monitoring in the background
selected).
