Suppress Excluded files listings in email

[MickeyDiener]

I have my backup script set up to send a success or failure email to me after every backup run. This email contains the log information from the backup. It contains a full listing of all files excluded from the backup. The list runs quite long and is extraneous to my notification of success and failure and what has been backed up. Below is a sample of what's included. Is there anyway to suppress this exclusion listing without turning off logging? Reviewing the documentation, I don't see a switch that would do so. Perhaps someone has come up with a workaround.

Thanks!
