nbu stops sending alert emails

[manatee]

NBU 7.6.0.3

i have previously configured the clients to send email alerts for backup status of either 0 or non-zero. it was working fine until yesterday.

i'm using Linux for my master/media server and have checked sendmail from the CLI  and it is sending emails fine.

the only changed i could remember is removing my email address from the master server's "Universal Settings". the "Global Attribute" still has my email address. the client's also still has the email address of the DBA.

is there a daemon that needs to be restarted?

Mismatched Client/Server settings can cause email notification to stop working.

bummer. yeah when i restored the email address back at the master server's "Universal Settings" it started working.

the reason i removed it in the first place is i don't want receiving backup alerts. only the DBA should.
