Configure email alerts

This page describes StackState version 4.1. 
The StackState 4.1 version range is End of Life (EOL) and no longer supported. We encourage customers still running the 4.1 version range to upgrade to a more recent release.
Go to the documentation for the latest StackState release.
To receive email alerts for changes in health state, the StackState configuration must include SMTP server details.

           email {
             properties {
               "mail.smtp.auth" = "true"   # "true" when user/pass provided   
               "mail.smtp.starttls.enable" = "false"   # use "true" for TLS
             }
             sender = "<EMAIL_SENDER_ADDRESS>"
             server {
               protocol = "smtp"
               host =  "<SMTP_SERVER_HOST>"
               port = 25
               username = "XXX"      # optional
               password = "XXX"      # optional
