[Tfug] S.M.A.R.T conf

I wanted to turn on smart monitoring. I edited /etc/smartd.conf adding 4 
lines for the 4 sata drives.

# list the devices that they wish to monitor.
/dev/sda -S on -d ata -H -m tlenz at vorgon.com
/dev/sdb -S on -d ata -H -m tlenz at vorgon.com
/dev/sdc -S on -d ata -H -m tlenz at vorgon.com
/dev/sdd -S on -d ata -H -m tlenz at vorgon.com
DEVICESCAN -d removable -n standby -m root -M exec 
/usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner

Anyone know if this is correct? I did notice that when I first got it to 
run, it sent the mail to root at vorgon.com instead of tlenz. Not a problem 
since I own the domain, but it should send it to the name stated since 
it gets the domain right.
