I wish you had an answer, I have a problem with email notification too

Can you send emails from your system

Hey - a newby may be able to help. Look at the last field - path to the ssmtp program - on my ubuntu it is "/usr/sbin/ssmtp". I *think* that part was left out on someone's post - add that in and see if it works...
