      Has this ever worked?

      How have you configured it?

      More info required to solve this.

              How to update the vendors list? It should pull the list automatically as I understand it. Do you see error logs?

                Just installed aprwatch package.

                Settings used :
                🔒 Log in to view

                Had to stop it an hour later : my (self hosted) mail box received hundreds of mails from arpwatch.

                This means :
                My Sys > Adv > Notifications has been set up correctly ;)
                "arpwatch" sends mail using the pfSense mail notational system .... and it does as advertised.

                Btw : take note of the warning :

                🔒 Log in to view

                I know what 'gmail' might do when you bombard it with pretty identical mails (from the same IP). It will do what it should do : it will discard and block them ....
                Upfront, you should white list (make the sender mail a contact, etc).
                gmail is nice to be sued as a things-go-bad-notifier, but do not spam them.

                No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                Edit : and where are the logs ??
