I have a Debian server and have monit installed and running. I use the following settings for alert mails:
set mailserver localhost # primary mailserver
set mail-format { from: [email protected] }
set alert [email protected]
I've started monit manually, and that resulted in local mails, to root@localhost. I want to receive mails via my personal mail address. I have postfix installed, and other applications (like Wordpress) can send out mails.
Why doesn't that work, and how can I get it working?
@Zoredache suggests to forward the mail to root@localhost to my own address. That sounds like a good solution. Now I'm wondering how I can get that working.
