Emailing alerts Troubleshooting: Why do emailed alerts never arrive?
If the alert action “Email alerts” returns successful completion status, but no email ever arrives the mail server may not be properly configured. • Open the php.ini configuration file and scroll down to the section labeled “[mail function]” [mail function] SMTP = localhost ;for win32 only sendmail_from = me@localhost.com ;for win32 only ;sendmail_path = ;for unix only • For Windows machines the incorrect mail server was probably specified. Set the “SMTP” variable to a valid STMP server. For UNIX machines an MTA probably could not be found. Set the variable “sendmail_path” to the MTA binary (include a full path).
