Under Admin -> System Config -> Manage Email Settings
What setting do you have set?
Do you have a valid email specified?
On this page it also shows some log locations that will likely contain the error messages

This will enable debug logging for phpmailer emails. The log is located here: /usr/local/nagiosxi/tmp/phpmailer.log
Sendmail log location depends on your system (examples: /var/log/maillog or /var/log/mail.log)
