Hobbit uses whatever mail agent is specified in ..server/etc/bbdef.sh (I
think that's the file)

If using sendmail, you need to configure sendmail so it knows what to do....

Subject: [hobbit] alerts - pointing at mail server


Dear All,
I've probably missed something obvious but........
I've set up some basic alerts in my hobbit config. Looking at the logs 
indicates that they are being triggered and attempting to send mail
to the specified address.
However - no mail arrives. I'm sure the reason is that the server 
doesn't know where to send them - I can't seem to find anywhere in the 
hobbit config files where I can tell it about my local smtp server.
Do I need to be configuring sendmail on my hobit server or?
Cheers!
Rich
