Hi Nick, i'm unable to reproduce the problem, using this configuration:
--8<-- set daemon 5 set mailserver xyz set alert address@domain check system $HOST --8<-- The $HOST was expanded to the hostname and mail delivered. Few questions: 1.) was your monit binary compiled from source or is it pre-compiled version? 2.) please can you send your monit configuration?
