As far as nagios is concerned, it's no different than sending an e-mail to any
other address. Just specify that address as the email parameter for a contact
that's being notified.
Because you're sending mail to the Internet though, you need to follow all of
the common rules for sending mail on the Internet. Typically the easiest way to
do so is to configure the MTA on your nagios box (sendmail, postfix, exim,
qmail, whateveritis) to smarthost mail to your current SMTP server.
If you want to send to Yahoo directly from your nagios box, at a minimum you
need to ensure that -
- the sending mail address is from a valid @domain.com
- The public IP seen by Yahoo has valid reverse DNS
- The name presented by reverse DNS resolves back to that same IP (FCRDNS)
- The public IP seen by Yahoo is not on any blacklists
- The hostname or HELO name presented by the MTA on your nagios server is a
valid hostname.domain.com in the public DNS
Consult the documentation for the MTA you have installed on your nagios box for
information on how to configure it for Internet delivery.
