calendar doesnt send notification emails
We recently put calserv into operation.
It works fine from within UWC.
However, when I add someone to an event who's email address is not on the local server, it shows up as a "mailto:abc@..." but that person never gets an email.
I notice all the ensmsg type options default to "no". Do I have to turn them on?

Hi,
Firstly make sure there are no errors in your calendar log files (e.g. notify.log/http.log).
Secondly make sure that the following ics.conf settings point to an email upload host that is operational (by default they point to localhost which may not be responding on port 25):
alarm.msgalarmnoticehost
caldb.smtphost
Thirdly, ensure the following options are enabled:
! global flags to control notification for invitation and cancellation.
! Enable (yes) Disable (no), default is enabled. Notification will be sent.
ine.cancellation.enable = "yes"
ine.invitation.enable = "yes"
If these settings are correct, check the mail logs on the hosts listed above to ensure that the email was actually sent.
Hope this helps,
Shane.

Thabks for the suggestions.
No obvious errors in the logs. I don't seem to have an http.log logfile though.
The config settings are as you suggest.
But looking at the mail server logs, the cal server never even attempt to send the email.
Theres just no connection.
Any other suggestions?
