maybe but I can't be sure of couse I should find it out.
maybe I will try to remove the cron job that excutes it and I will see if
the e-mails still comming ? it think that if e-mails will stop than it is
100% problem with the vhost updater program.
But by now we are checking with the cronjob I added so I will leave it for
now.
