You can also attach the original email message to the notification. New email
notifications containing only notification text must be created for the administrator
and sender.
All notifications that can be customized by the administrator fall into one of the
following two groups:
• Standard notification is based on a unified template or on different
templates. This notification is sent:
• to the recipient using Milter API. A new message is not created
in this case; the notification text is simply added to the
processed message.
• to the administrator and / or sender by the external mail agent,
Sendmail. A new notification message is created and the
original message can be attached to it. Usually this kind of
notification is used to inform the administrator of a drop or
reject action.
If you install the application on a dedicated server,
you should install Sendmail agent on that server too.
The application will use the agent to send
notifications for the administrator and sender.
• Special notification for the administrator is sent to the administrator in
case of emergency, for example, if a critical error occurs during Anti-Virus
performance. This kind of notification is also sent by the external mail
agent, Sendmail.
See section 7.10.2 on page 62 on how to customize notification
templates.
The [group.notifications] section of the group configuration file contains all
notification options.
