Could someone advice me please where to check?

HI Pantos,

Sounds like an issue with the configurations. We usually track this down in the nagios.log and cross-check this with the mail log for errors.

The following kb article covers all the areas to check, hopefully, this will help you find the source of the issue.

Let me know what you find out.
