So where would I look to see what message is being logged by the client?
It appears this is not being sent to sendmail?

	Thinking about it I am using the Windows BB client too!  It is
on one server that I normally just cuss and disable the tests for, but
it is reporting =)

		I don't think hobbit plays well with the BB windows
client (I don't recal where I saw this).  Have you tried putting BBWin
on one of the servers to see if that gives you any output?

		Can you share your ~/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg
please?

		I have a test Hobbit server running on CentOS 5.0 I am
running Hobbit 4.1.2p2 and everything appears to be fuinctioning correct
except alerting. When I trigger an alert, I get an email with only a
subject and no body. I expected to get some information about the alert
and the link to the monitored device. I am sure I am missing something
fairly simple but I am new to Linux and Hobbit. 

		 
		Any Ideas?
