    please read "Setting up email notifications about backups": pg 150 onwards from the Administrator guide

    I quote:

    Sending messages to the administrator about successful and unsuccessful backups
    An alternative to sending all emails through the master server is to send emails
    through each client. An email can be sent to each client's administrator after all
    backups.
    To send email notifications for all backups from a client
    1 On the master server, open the NetBackup Administration Console.
    2 In the NetBackupAdministrationConsole, expand NetBackupManagement
    > Host Properties > Clients.
    3 In the right pane, double-click the client you want to modify. Multiple clients
    can also be selected.
    4 In the properties dialog box, in the left pane, select Universal Settings.
    5 In the Client administrator’s email field, enter the email address of the
    administrator to receive the notification emails. (Separate multiple addresses
    with commas.)
    See “Universal Settings properties” on page 218.
    6 Enable the Client sends mail option and click Apply.

    Hope that helps
