Hi there, just set this up a couple days ago and finally got around to setting up a filter to email me events on weekdays between 9AM and 7PM, and I enabled background. I tested it, and although I generated 19 events, none were emailed to me. I then went in and manually hit execute for that filter, and received 19 emails (indicating that the filter and email works, just not the backgrounding). Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Here's the logs from the latest test event:

Jul 25 18:34:59 host zma_m1[12570]: INF [Apartment: 12470 - Gone into alarm state]
Jul 25 18:34:59 host zma_m1[12570]: INF [Apartment: 12470 - Opening new event 55, alarm start]
Jul 25 18:34:59 host zma_m1[12570]: INF [Apartment: 12478 - Gone into alert state]
Jul 25 18:35:00 host zma_m1[12570]: INF [Apartment: 12488 - Left alarm state (55) - 28(8) images]
Jul 25 18:35:00 host zma_m1[12570]: INF [Apartment: 12488 - Closing event 55, alarm end]

No mentions of filters or emails. I've checked the logs for postfix and there is no entry in that time period, but there were entries for the emails sent when I hit execute earlier.

I'm attaching screenshots of my filter and email setup.

Is there anywhere else I can look for a clue as to what's going on? I must be missing something.

Bump. Any ideas?

I don't see where you set it to email you of any events? I found the config for it before but I need to find it again as I gave up because zoneminder was not emailing me at all.

Use this configuration for GMAIL,
