MAILBOOT

INTRODUCTION
============
Once upon a time, a computer reboot. Again. And again. And again.
Whereas a lot of computers reboot and we don't care, few should not reboot
without notifying someone.
*MAILBOOT* is a small program (and systemd service unit) used to send an email
when a computer boot (or reboot), providing useful informations and setupable
in less than 1min.
FAQ
===
Why do not use cron?
--------------------
I started with a cron line. But after workarounded the basic missing feature of
customizing the mail subject in my cron daemon (fcron) in using mail command,
I was borred by being able to send interesting information in one sh line.
So I decided to find another solution.
How to install?
---------------
::
$ ./autogen.sh -m
$ make install
$ /usr/local/bin/mailboot
What you cannot do with mailboot?
-----------------------------------
