Email address for Service Monitoring

    Hello!

    I was wondering where the email address that the server uses to send the monitoring warnings is stored (e.g. if the FTP server is down, it sends an email to me, but I'd like to change that address). It looks to me like it might be in Management > Server > Settings > Admin Email, but if I change that, what else will change with it?

    Thanks,
    Spudchat

    Right.

    Nothing. Why?

    I'm hoping to get it setup to send me an SMS if something goes wrong and I'm not at the computer (unfortunately my phone can't read email cost effectively), but I just wanted to make sure that people wouldn't wind up text messaging me over non-important issues.

    Thanks,
    Spudchat

    P.S. If your interested in trying it out, check out this link that was on digg a few days ago: http://www.email-unlimited.com/stuff/send-email-to-phone.htm

    EDIT: So far, so good -- it sent me an email (which went to my phone) and restarted the ftp server :D
