Setting up sendmail e-mail notification
A sendmail e-mail notification originates from the iHub user account. To send an iHub e-mail notice from a Linux system, ensure that the account that runs the iHub can access the sendmail program from each node. Enable the View service on each node. The sendmail program is in /usr/lib/sendmail.
To test the e-mail configuration, send an e-mail message to a user from the iHub e‑mail account.
How to test e-mail notification
1 Log in to the account that runs iHub.
2 Send the e-mail message using the following command:
/usr/lib/sendmail mail-address < message.txt
where
message.txt contains the test message.
mail-address is the user’s account name as registered with iHub.
3 If the message arrives, the account setup is correct. If the message does not arrive, perform one or more of the following tasks:
Check the e-mail address for typographical errors.
Log in to an account other than the account that handles iHub e-mail and try sending e-mail to the user.
Compare the user’s account name that is registered with your e-mail program to the account name registered in the Encyclopedia volume. These two account names must match exactly.
4 If the e-mail does not arrive after you complete the tasks in step 3, and you continue to have problems sending e-mail from the iHub account, contact Actuate Support for assistance.
