Preamble:
   Netstream (www.netstream.ch) may consider using ccollect for backing up many
   unix servers and needs some clean reporting. The following things
   need to be done, so ccollect will be useful for netstream:

Logger:
   - Needs to write small mails (sysadmins don't have time to read mails)
   - Needs to be able to only write a mail on error
      * needs configuration option to also mail on warnings
   - Should be able to send one mail per backup source
      * or one for the whole backup job

Messages: (to be used for filtering)
   Errors:
      Read from remote host .*: Connection timed out

   Warnings:
      rsync: mknod .* failed: Invalid argument (22)
      file has vanished: ".*"

       -S, --sparse
              Try  to handle sparse files efficiently so they take up less space on the des‐
              tination.  Conflicts with --inplace because it’s  not  possible  to  overwrite
              data in a sparse fashion.

   Always report return code!
