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

[Lenny Sanchez <lennys@FW1-NOSPAMhealthgate.com>]

We are planning the same thing.  The only rub is first we need to upgrade
from IPSO 3.2.  Is it safe to upgrade to 3.3 from 3.2, or is 3.2.1 needed
first.  Also, anyone aware of any good docs on IPSO upgrades (other than the
pdf release notes).  Basically what I want do is have both 3.2 and 3.3
images sitting on  the IP 440, so then I can revert back in case anything
goes wrong.  Then go ahead with the Checkpoint upgrade (4.1 spk 2 to spk 3).

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
