    Debugging Alerts

    Hi, I'm using Zabbix 1.6.6 and I've created an alert which should send three emails (I've defined three different mail-servers for them) when triggered. One of the three is send correctly the other two fail.
    My question is if there is a way I can see what exactly is going wrong (e.g. if the mail-server rejects my helo). I already tried to set the log level of the zabbix-server to debug but I couldn't find any useful information concerning my problem in the log file.

    There is a log in the database, accessible by the web frontend.
    AFAIR it can be found under "Administration/Audit" and the select
    "Actions". If there was an answer from the mail server, it's shown
    there in case of an error.
    I am sorry to be so vague about the real menu entry but I'm at home now
    on the laptop where Zabbix is not installed. So I can't check for the right location
    in the menus.
    But I guess, you'll find it. It might be hidden under "Audit logs"
    because this is the default entry in the combobox.

    HTH,

    Norbert.
