Ah, actually it looks like it may be working now. May have had to do with how I was testing the temp failure or maybe I changed some things in between testing. I tried it a couple more times and it seems to have triggered the email to be sent out now The absolute path to the application i used is: C:\DellSMTPNotify\DellSMTPNotify.exe 3 no quotes around it. Thank you 
Hello, please assist I'm working off this guide: xyfon.com/.../setup-email-notifications-dell-openmanage It works for my windows 2003 server with open manage on it. However I'm unable to get open manage to send an alert from a windows 2012 system. It works at the command line but not at the "Execute application" absolute path part of the Alert Management. I tried all the suggestions in the thread. Anyone know if this works for win2012 or how to get it to work?Thank you,Fred
