Hi,           Can you check the below items 1: "DNS DRAC Name " and "Static DNS Domain Name " is configured on iDRAC Settings -> Network page 2: On Server->Alerts->Alerts page, can you check whether Alerts is in "Enabled" state?        From the screen shots you provided I also suspect following issues 1: Under "Destination E-Mail Address" section "E-Mail Alert 1" is not in Enabled State (Check box is not enabled) 2:  E-Mail Authentication is enabled. Did you have E-Mail server is also configured for Authentication support? If not can you check by disabling E-Mail Authentication 3: You mentioned FQDN for E-Mail Server. Did you mention appropriate DNS under IPv4 or IPv6 Section (if enabled) on network page and DNS can resolve "mail.example.com". You can also check this by specifying IP address here.
Hello all, I have been trying to configure the email settings in iDRAC 7 Enterprise, but I am having no luck thus far. I logged into the web interface and went to Overview -> Server -> Alerts.  On the Alerts page I clicked the SNMP and E-mail Settings tab at the top of the page. [IMAGE] Then I entered the E-Mail settings, clicked apply and tried sending an email, where I got the following error: [IMAGE] I check the mail server logs and it's not receiving any requests from this machine.  I checked the email account that I'm using for SMTP and it is able to send an email on my CentOS machine with SSMTP. I have just recently began configuring this machine, so these are all the steps that I have done on this server so far.  Are there others in order to be able to send a test email?
