Re: [FW1] Sending mail alerts via NT mgmt station

[Naresh <naresh@FW1-NOSPAMoptimnetworks.com>]

Hi

I tried it on PDS 2100 and found that with -t option it doesn't work. Works with

sendmail -s Alert -f somebody@mydomain.com  mailreceiver@mydomain.com

I get hundreds of mails after it gets enabled.

Regards,
Naresh
