Symptoms

Cause
By default the log file for sm_notify process only logs its connect/disconnect events to the domain.
Resolution
To add additional logging so that the mail notifier process will log processed notifications, you must change to mail-notify.asl script as follows: Open the mail-notify.asl script for editing as follows:./sm_edit rules/notifier/mail/mail-notify.asl Find the mailer-> function to send mail at the very end of the script.Add a print statement below the mailer-> function as follows:68 mailer->sendmail(sender, recipients, subject, body) ? LOG, STOP;69 print(sender."\t".recipients."\t".subject."\t".body."\n"); /*print statement added for logging.*/ Restart the sm_notify service. Notifications processed by the adapter will be written to the log.
