Normally I send Alerts to my cell phone as SMS messages using my [EMAIL PROTECTED] email address. However, I am currently trying to get Servers Alive (5.0.1743) to send using my Gmail account when mail starts to pile up at my outbound mail server as this would indicate a problem at the mail server and presumably my notifications won't go out.
I have a batch file which calls BLAT and sends via STUNNEL via Gmail's SSL Port. It runs fine when run manually. The command the batch file is running is as follows: blat -server 127.0.0.1:26 -to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -from [EMAIL PROTECTED] -subject "Servers Alive" -body "Problems With Mail Server" -u [EMAIL PROTECTED] -pw mypassword In SA I go to my entry, switch the Alert tab, hit ADD, Execute Command, then select "Normal Command (EXE/BAT/...)" and in the command I enter c:\pathto\BlatAlex.bat and hit OK then UPDATE. When I test the alert in SA nothing happens - the batch file doesn't seem to run and STUNNEL doesn't register a hit in its log. I turned on SA logging and got the following: Thursday, June 01, 2006 10:20:01 AM Email Queue Thursday, June 01, 2006 10:20:01 AM External COM check started (W00000010,17,-1) Thursday, June 01, 2006 10:20:01 AM DEBUG: got new parameters Thursday, June 01, 2006 10:20:01 AM External COM check (W00000010,17):Found 42 files expected less then 30 I don't understand what "DEBUG: got new parameters" means. Does anyone have any suggestions? Alternatively, does anyone have any other suggestions on doing this?
