Drobo devices, as well as critical issues such as drive failures, low capacity etc. Once you
have set up e-mail alerts, you can also modify these settings.
Drobo provides users with two options:

To configure the e-mail alerts follow the steps given below
1.
In Drobo Dashboard, click the Dashboard Preferences option on the Navigation
menu.

Email Relay or Use Custom Email Server.
Note:
If you had already configured the mail server before and upgraded to the latest
Dashboard version now, by default the Use Custom Mail Server option remains
configured as shown in the figure below.
