    OK, I've come up with a server job that runs a task, if successful it then sends an email.
    the only problem I have is the variable for the hostname - I have %computername%, but this is what I am receiving in the email! (see screenshots)

    Any better ways than this, if not any idea on fixing the Computername in the email

    Cheers

    Joe.

     

    edit : Doh!  this doesn't work either!!!

    My initial guess is you have to out a token replacement task in the job. I haven't looked at this in an email capacity but it may be along the same idea that used for deployment. If I get some time today I will try to set something up and look at it.
