localhost.localdomain

[Yao, Jack]

yeah , the contacts.cfg file is okay. Because  it was working before when
the alias was localhot.localdomain , once I change the host alias to be
myservername.mydomain.com  , it stop sending any notification.   I just
changed it back to be localhost.localdomain again , and it does actually
sending out notification once I've done that....
 
But I want it to be myserver.mydomain.com instead 
any thoughts?

What is the contents of your contacts.cfg file?  Are the email addresses
correct in there?  Is other email working from your machine?
