Check if the email server is working
(check /var/log/mail.log for outgoing mails)
services.cfg: check for correct contact group, notification_period,
notification_options should normally be "c,r"
Check if you use /usr/bin/mail to deliver mail, otherwise correct the
entry in misccommands.cfg
Read Documentation!
