I've been using unmenu and it has been working nice. Lots of nice information via the GUI. I'm trying to setup the sendmail package. I installed it, setup my settings on the install page and don't know where else to go to setup the extra triggers or alerts? Also, the test message didn't work so I'm wondering where I can see what's going on with it. I'd love to have the system email me something if a drive fails or temp goes too high.

You can try typing this line, to run ssmtp in a debugging mode to see more of the interaction between it an your mail host:

echo -e "Subject: a test\n\nThis is the email body." | ssmtp -d root

 

As far as other "triggers" or alerts, there are two other packages in the package manager that many use to periodically monitor their server status and send alerts as needed. 

  "Unraid status e-mail"

and

  "Unraid-overtemp-shutdown"

 

You can of course add other scripts once the ssmtp mail command is working.
