      Hello,

      is it normal, that there is no E-Mail notification if one WAN in LoadBalancing is going down but a growl message ?

      When will an E-Mail be sent ? Which error has to occure or do I have the possibility to edit this ?

      Thanks

        The notifications are currently only for major events that cause a notification in the GUI as well. These are usually limited to rare occurrences like generating ssh keys, filter load errors, sync failures, and so on.

          You say "currently only for major events".

          Does this mean, that there will be notifications for other events in future? In 2.0 or in later releases ? Just asking!

          SMTP didn't report any errors for me - only testmail. GROWL is okay. Sometimes there could be some more information, but it shows me if an interface goes down or up again - that's ok.

          thanks

            In 2.1 I want to have a user-configurable notification system, something like a command line program to run and the expected output to trigger on. Long way out though.
