Subject: [FW-1] sendmail from global properties


Hi folks !!!

I need to use mail alerts from Global Properties, but i can´t get it !!!

If i try to use the sendmail command below from command line, it does work.


*sendmail -s Alert -t (mail_server) -f (sender) (recipient) *

But if i put this line in Global Properties and a MAIL or USERDEFINED on a
rule base (at TRACK column), it did´nt work...
Any ideas?
