Thanks a lot Aleksander.

Although I am still not receiving the email alerts, I managed to have the
"accepted" mailserver command. It seems I am behind a huge firewall and this
server only works locally, that was why they were asking me to use POP to
send the alerts.

I guess the only other way would be to open up a port and specify this in
the mailserver right?

I dont think they would like to do that.

I will keep you posted if I make any progress on this one.


Thanks again!
