Hi,

I am installing a new server with Proxmox 5.

I have errors in my syslog :
Code:
zed: error: all-notify.sh: eid=1: "mail" not installed

and the mail command is not working :
Code:
# mail
-bash: mail: command not found

In all my previous proxmox versions, mail command was working without installing anything special.

Is there something different with Proxmox5 ?

Thanks for your help,
Hakim

for this functionality zed needs a mailx compatible mail client which doesn't seem to be installed, you can install s-nail or bsd-mailx for this
