Have my options > e-mail, set as follow:

opt_email: checked

email_body:

.


e-mails are been generated with the default subject: ZoneMinder: Alarm - Door-3356 (51 - 29 44)

and

No changes in body:

Had just rebooted to test if that would "fix" and finished phpmyadmin install to pick inside the DB and saw e-mails are now coming with the right config:

Hello,

An alarm has been detected at XYZ Dr.

The details are as follows :-

Monitor : Door
Time : 2021-01-27 17:46:10
Event Id : 3459
Length : 9.40
Frames : 45 (6)
Scores : t97 m25 a16

Issue closed.

Just don't know why it took a reboot ...

Typically a reboot isn't required in gnu linux world. That's a windows thing. Usually restarting mariadb is enough.
