I appreciate the response, but simply saying 'google it' is not
helpful. I've been googling all day and following various how-to's
with no success.<br>

just spent half my day attempting to get Postfix to function,
without success. My ISP blocks port 25, so I've attempted to
setup the TLS relay to my SMTP host, but that doesn't work
either. Gone are the days of just editing a few configs and
then everything works. I've read more how-to's than I want to
count, and none actually work. If Xymon has 'alerts' built-in
shouldn't it roll in an actual email relay tool that users can
enter their basic SMTP server credentials and it just works?
Can someone offer some sane assistance please? I'm beating my
head against the wall at this point. <br>

You'll want to set myhostname, myorigin, inet_interfaces,
my_destination, and maybe relayhost. <br>
<br>
They are pretty self expanitory. <br>
<br>
You might also need to look at the firewall. <br>

Subject: [Xymon] New Xymon Server email <br>
<br>
I just built a new Ubuntu 19.10 server and installed Xymon
server on it <br>
using the premade apt package. I've got working hosts.cfg, <br>
analysis.cfg, and client-local.cfg. The webpage works fine
and client <br>
data flows in and displays accurately. <br>
<br>
I've also configured alerts.cfg to email me for everything,
but I'm not <br>
receiving any emails in my mailbox. In the past when I've
built a xymon <br>
server box I installed Sendmail that took care of sending the
emails <br>
out. But this is 2020 and I'm assuming something else is
built into the <br>
Xymon Server code that does the emailing. What am I missing
here? Do I <br>
still need to install a separate mailer? <br>
