Has this worked recently?  Perhaps the link between alerting an your MTA
has been severed.

Where else can I look to troubleshoot?


Perhaps look for errors from xymond_alert.  These will be in "alert.log".
 You might find a reason why it can't run /usr/bin/mail.  Also, try
"xymond_alert --dump-config" and check the parsed config to see if it
matches what you expect.
