Ok, so as an alternative to viewing the logs in the web interface I've been trying to set up a way to email alerts and daily syslogs. I can see where to set up at least the alerts w/in syslog-ng but I have no idea how to make the mail part happen. I understand I'll need to connect out to a remote SMTP server (my ISP has one and I know the hostname and authentication pieces), but I'm not sure how to go about making that work. I've installed sendmail and played around with it a bit, but really am too green to figure out how to use it to connect out to a remote SMTP server. Can someone point me in the right direction? I'll be happy to write a HOW-TO once I can get this all figured out.

Thanks!
