right so I tried that in several different ways:
in monitrc:
set daemon 30 # Poll at 60 second intervals for testing purposes.
set httpd port 2812 and use address localhost
allow localhost
set mailserver 127.0.0.1
set mail-format {
subject: $SERVICE $EVENT
message: $HOST $DATE
...
...
... is as i had before.
and that gives me:
Monit started
Monit instance changed notification is sent to [email protected]
Cannot open a connection to the mailserver '127.0.0.1:25' -- Transport endpoint
is not connected
Trying the next mail server '127.0.0.1:25'
Cannot open a connection to the mailserver '127.0.0.1:25' -- Transport endpoint
is not connected
No mail servers are available
Aborting event
okay,
so then I tried in monitrc:
set mailserver smtp.jpl.nasa.gov
And that gives me:
Monit started
Monit instance changed notification is sent to [email protected]
Cannot open a connection to the mailserver 'smtp.jpl.nasa.gov:25' -- Bad file
number
Trying the next mail server '127.0.0.1:25'
Cannot open a connection to the mailserver '127.0.0.1:25' -- Transport endpoint
is not connected
No mail servers are available
Ideas?
Thank you!

Hello,
you need to set the mailserver to be used for alert delivery using the "set
mailserver" statement - see manual for more details:
http://www.mmonit.com/monit/documentation/monit.html#setting_a_mail_server_for_alert_delivery
Regards,
Martin
