Email setup question

Post by jtennant12 »

I have just installed Nagios 3.2.3 on Ubuntu Server 12.04LTS and using SSMTP for my email.

However when the system tries to send a emain it is being sent to root@localhost which fails to be deliverable.

I have it currently sending from my email address which we use Google Apps for Education so I know that is setup correctly.

Just can't firgure out where I tell Nagios who to send the emails to other than root@localhost?

Did you edit the address field in your contact's config file?
