Hello,

I'm trying to confirm I will get email notifications if smart status is bad on drives. I've tested by entering the following:
echo "testing" | mail -s "test message" name@whereever

From mail.log, proxmox is unable to connect to gmail:
connect to gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.198.27]:25: Connection timed out

I've tried to telnet to that address without success. I suspect my ISP is blocking port 25. Do I have any options? Is it possible to bypass this? I also attempted port 587 (telnet), with no luck. I'm I stuck here?

TIA!,
Ahira
