Hello,

I am running the paid/SVN version of observium and I have tried a couple of times to setup email alerts and each time I end up breaking my config and having to restore it.

Does anyone have any sample configurations I can look at/copy from for simple alerts to a single email address via a network SMTP relay?

e.g. mail from observium@domain.com mailto:observium@domain.com to alerts@domain.com mailto:alerts@domain.com?

Hrm,

you looked configuration options on wiki? http://www.observium.org/wiki/Configuration_Options#Alert_Settings

Minimal example for you:

$config['email']['enable'] = TRUE; $config['email']['from'] = 'observium@domail.com'; // Default: "Observium" <observium@`hostname -f`> $config['email']['default'] = 'alerts@domain.com'; $config['email']['default_only'] = TRUE;

by default used php mail backend (no smtp required).

For use smtp add: $config['email']['backend'] = 'smtp';

and specific smtp options (see on wiki).

Do I require a local postfix install for mail to be dropped into?

Many thanks,

Robin
