Hi again guys! I have been trying alot of your suggestions with no luck! But i found this(http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/10/21/sending-email-from-your-system-with-ssmtp/) ssmtp program allowing me to send mail from my host through my Gmail account, and this works perfectly!
But I have not manage to connect ssmtp to my ossec for mail notifications, is there anybody who has done this or have any hints on how to do this?
