the list.

Note: You can test e-mail notification by specifying the options on the E-mail

Notification tab and clicking Test. (By default, the test will be run from
the machine where the Replication Console is running.) If desired,
you can send the test message to a different e-mail address by
selecting Send To and entering a comma or semicolon separated list
of addresses. Modify the message text up to 1024 characters, if
necessary. Click Send to test the e-mail notification. The results will
be displayed in a message box. Click OK to close the message and
click Close to return to the E-mail Notification tab.

E-mail notification will not function properly if the Event logs are full.

If an error occurs while sending an e-mail, a message will be
generated. This message will not trigger an e-mail. Subsequent e-
mail errors will not generate additional messages. When an e-mail is
sent successfully, a message will then be generated. If another e-mail
fails, one message will again be generated. This is a cyclical process
where one message will be generated for each group of failed e-mail
messages, one for each group of successful e-mail messages, one for
the next group of failed messages, and so on.

If you start and then immediately stop the Storage Mirroring service,
you may not get e-mail notifications for the log entries that occur
during startup.

By default, most virus scan software blocks unknown processes from
sending traffic on port 25. You need to modify the blocking rule so that
Storage Mirroring Recover e-mail messages are not blocked.
