Hello!

Was wondering how to get the email alerts working/tested.  Does the subscription system use phpmail, sendmail, postfix, what?

There are some legacy configuration directives in my config.php from the CE version, before I learned it didn’t work… do I need to take them out?

Thanks,
Scott Brawner

Err, what about smtp server, etc. is that in another config?  Does the alerter code use phpmail?

Thanks,

HI,

So just to be clear, on the subscription version, to use the "new" alerting system, the below is the only lines required to get the email working ? (changing email address of-course) 

$config['alerts']['email']['default']      = "adama@memetic.org";

$config['alerts']['email']['from']         = "Observium Dev <adama@memetic.org>";

$config['alerts']['email']['default_only'] = TRUE;

$config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;

Regards, Daniel

are you running the mail sending thingeroo? :)

alerter.php

it should be run by the poller-wrapper if the config option is set, but err, that might be undocumented :)

$config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = TRUE;
