Email.conf error


Thanks to René, I think I got my Cron problem fixed. For tester purposes, I've got Cron set up to send me an e-mail once every minute. Well, it sends me the e-mail, but the e-mail contains the following error:

email: FATAL: Line number 7 is incorrectly formated in email.conf

Caught an ERROR, Shutting down...

As far as I can tell, everything is fine, but I've attached my email.conf file with the e-mail address and SMTP server address * out so I don't get the crap spammed out of me.

Thanks,
Andrew
