How to email notifications from Nagios

[Giedrius Astrauskas net]

Hi,

I have installed and configured Nagios to send notifications by email. By
looking at Notifications page I see that it correctly produces
notifications, however it never actually sends them out.
>From reading Nagios documentation I got the impression that additional
software is needed to actually email notifications, however I could not find
any sample or description how Nagios actually interacts with such software.
All I really need is a simple script to send emails. I am quite new to
Linux, so please let me know if I am overlooking something.
I would really appreciate any advice or information about actually getting
emails go out.

Thank you.


Giedrius
