Hello there.

I was unable to configure postfix to work as a relay smtp server. I therefore switched to msmtp
i installed the packages with apt install msmtp msmtp-mta and created a global config in /etc/msmtprc

I can now send mail via msmtp or sendmail (now just symlink to msmtp) on the command line and in scripts.
Mail address for user root is set in the webinterface. But i don't get admin mail or mail notifications from Backups. What am I missing?
