Just found out that email addresses separated by a comma (,) work, in contrast to the semicolon. When used with SSMTP.

Ok, I figured it out. For prosperity...

It was a docker issue. My timezone of the docker container was set to UTC and I'm in Europe/Amsterdam. After I changed the docker variable, the filters worked like to be expected.

Ok, I have a breakthrough. It turns out that it has to do with a time difference between probably the database and zoneminder or something. I was testing with filters of greater than 1 minute and 1 hour ago, but this didn't trigger any events. Now I tested with a filter of events greater than 3 ...

I don't see any logging about ssmtp or sending mail. I've tailed syslog and debug log. Should there be a zmfilter.log file in the /var/log/zm folder? Because that doesn't exist in my setup. Yes, there should be a zmfilter.log. And the LOG_DEBUG_FILE should have your output as well. Maybe it's ...

Ok, I took a look at the other post, but haven't made any progress in finding a solution. I've set log levels to the following: 2017-09-28_14-56-10.png But I don't see any logging about ssmtp or sending mail. I've tailed syslog and debug log. Should there be a zmfilter.log file in the /var/log/zm ...

I've written a bit on this on the wiki. Did you look at this? https://wiki.zoneminder.com/SMS_Notifications The existing wiki guides cover SMTP setup well. At least for Devuan / Debian Jessie and Ubuntu 14.04. Specifically, you should be following the "How to get ssmtp working with Zoneminder" wiki ...

When I look in the debug log file I get this: 09/26/17 09:16:49.936818 zmfilter[19294].DBG [LogOpts: level=DBG/DBG, screen=OFF, database=INF, logfile=DBG->/var/log/zm/zm_debug.log.19294, syslog=DBG] 09/26/17 09:16:50.003846 zmfilter[19294].INF [Scanning for events using filter '_TempFilter1506410209 ...

Thanks for the screenshots. My settings are identical. The weird part is that I do not see any log about sending an email. I don't know how to debug this any further.

I'm running Debian 8 in a docker. The version of ZoneMinder is 1.30.4.

Does the filter work with SMTP and trigger the send mail event? Does the filter work in any conditions at all? The mail trigger doesn't seem to trigger at all, in no circumstances. At least, I don't see it in the log. The filter itself does give me results, as to events to mail. I force a new event ...

Hi guys, I've been debugging SSMTP for quite some time now and am not able to get it working. I've followed the instructions and read a lot of posts. The one thing that's different from other posts is that I don't get an event of sending the email in the log file. The only log I get from zmfilter is ...

Can you tell some more about the issue? I've spend quite some time now on getting it to work, but haven't made any progress.

OK, I got it working. The problem was a character in the password.

I figured it out by running curl commands directly from the command line.

Also, this link helped me in debugging php:

I finally got this working. Curl was installed incorrectly was what was causing me problems. There were 2 issues with the PHP script, as written: 1 - Curl will not allow SSL cert mismatches in name, so care must be taken in aligning the call to the webservers domain name to align with the name used ...
