That is to say, five or six people in the variable with no mailing list used. From our config, with everyone but me redacted:
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "xxx@io.com, xxx@io.com, xxx@io.com, xxx@io.com,spedersen@io.com, xxx@io.com, xxx@io.com"; // Default alert recipient

Hmm. Is this handled by us, or by the mail server?
Mike? :)

No problem at all. Really nice product.
Btw do we support multiple recipient yet? Or do I have to use a mail list for that?

I really appreciate you guys awesome work. But just want to point out
that the format in your example IS the one I used and failed and different from Adam just sent.
$config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = "you@yourdomain.org”;
Vs
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "adama@memetic.org”;
Seems the “right” syntax is a lot neater.

Thank you so much :P this works. But Š not in any documentations :P
Versions I used were directly from config.php.default with my modification. And some from some older version¹s example and from this email list¹s old threadsŠ
But with these 3 lines, it worked perfectly!

Hi,
Assuming your system mail works, this is all you need :
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "adama@memetic.org"; $config['alerts']['email']['from'] = "Observium Dev adama@memetic.org"; $config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = TRUE;

I tired many ways to make email working. But seems to be out of luck.
From linux command line, mail prove to be work on either local sendmail/postfix or via external smtp server. Php test email works either way as well. But observium seems not able to generate any alert email. A tcpdump session would not capture any email data as well when my configured alert checker fires off an alert.
Seems from config.php, I need to configure $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['descr'] = "Observium Email Alert"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['type'] = "email"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['contact'] = ³zliang@xxxx.com"; $config['alerts']['alerter']['default']['enable'] = TRUE;
$config['email_from'] = ³observium@xxxxxx.com"; $config['email_backend'] = "mail"; $config['email_smtp_host'] = 'localhost¹;
Also tried
$config['email']['from'] = ³observium@xxx.com"; $config['email']['backend'] = "mail"; $config['email']['smtp_host'] = 'localhost'; $config['email']['default_only'] = 'true'; $config['email']['smtp_secure'] = 'false¹;
And
$config['email']['from'] = ³observium@mydomain.com"; $config['email']['backend'] = ³smtp"; $config['email']['smtp_host'] = ¹smtp.mydomain.com'; $config['email']['default_only'] = 'true'; $config['email']['smtp_secure'] = 'false¹;
None of those combination of configs works.
It looks like we are deprecate old format of $config['email_from¹] to $config[Œemail¹]['from¹] style? With later format, from global settings, I could see my change taking effect. But using the old format, some values got updated, some not. But nevertheless, email were never sent out.
Please advise.
I am using code version of Observium 0.14.9.5798 Apache 2.2.15 (CentOS) PHP 5.3.3 MySQL 5.1.66 SNMP NET-SNMP version: 5.5 RRDtool 1.3.8
