Description-en: automatically email one or more admins when a system reboots
bootmail is a handy utility that will automatically send an email
to a configurable list of email addresses each time the system boots.
This is perhaps useful for unattended servers that should not reboot often.
It appends a configurable list of log files to the email body.
.
If you install the suggested packages, it will also cryptographically
sign the email messages.
