Re: Edited: <on-connect> / <on-disconnect> not working

Very cool, I haven't encountered the "set -x" debug flag before. 
However, the output isn't as interesting as I hoped:

icecast2@Icecast-Pi:/home/kpovdjs/bin$ ./email_onconnect.sh
+ printf 'To:[email protected]\nFrom:[email protected]\nSubject: Remote host has connected to mountpoint on the Backstream\n\n KPOV Icecast server on IcecastPi has detected a connection on the backstream.'
+ /usr/bin/[email protected]
icecast2@Icecast-Pi:/home/kpovdjs/bin$

Thank you!
