Just for further confirmation/validation, I've been having the same issue with email notifications not being delivered until the system is rebooted (then backlog delivered all at once) since I reinstalled to OMV 7 with the openmediavault-flashmemory 7.0.1 plugin. After uninstalling the 7.0.1 plugin from the WebUI and installing the new test 7.1 plugin from the CLI and rebooting the system (just to make sure everything applied OK) I now receive notification emails immediately (used WebUI Notification Settings Test button). Thanks for the fix.
E-mail Notifications Stopped Working

After I configure the mail, test notifications work, but after a while they stop until I restart the server.
Facing this exact same reason after upgrading to OMV7. In my case I am using gmail for notifications, same settings as I had on omv6. Edit, for the record, I have not installed the 7.1 test version of the flashmemory plugin but I did the omv-upgrade yesterday and still facing the same issue with the mail plugin. Should I go ahead and install the 7.1 version?

Install the test Flash plugin after removing the plugin that was installed from the repository. Disable monitoring in the system. It works correctly for me...

There is something different with postfix. It does not like /var/spool being moved to ram. I removed /var/spool from the test version of the flashmemory plugin using zram. I am already too deep in the change of the plugin to zram to change the old folder2ram version. I recommend trying the new version - test new version of flashmemory plugin using zram

Did you need to disable monitoring? Having that enabled is one of the reasons to get my email notifications to work..

Regarding monitoring, read some of the latest notifications on the related topic, starting from here

monitoring and notifications are two different things. For the most part, monitoring uses collectd which is write heavy and notifications use monit. I have monitoring disabled on all systems. I'm not sure what emails you get from collectd.

Btw emails have been working fine since yesterday without having had the time to install the test flashmemory.. only thing I did difference was run `sudo omv-mkaptidx` to fix the update notifications on the dashboard which doesn't seem related but I'm reporting it for visibility anyways. Haven't restarted OMV so might lose it then. Once I have more time I'll play with this again and report back.

The issue on most systems is that postfix doesn't start on boot. Once you start it, it is fine.

Removing /var/spool from the zram config does seem to have fixed the postfix starting problem on most systems though.

is that approach described somewhere? is it preferable to installing the test flashmemory?

I removed /var/spool from the list of directories moved to ram in the latest test version of the flashmemory plugin. The new version also allows you to add/remove directories. As I mentioned in post #64 of this thread, I am too far into the new version to change anything with the folder2ram version.
is it preferable to installing the test flashmemory?
There are only a few options. Start postfix manually after each boot. Install the test plugin. Remove the flashmemory plugin altogether. I can't tell you what is the best option for you. I am running the test plugin on all of my OMV systems (8).

Hi All,
I stumbled on this when looking at the issues where emails appeared to just bank up until on one of my OMVs however after a restart, they seem to get released in what appears as in the reverse order! ....last in, first out? It started doing this a good year or two ago....just one of those "I should look into that".
I did a test email - this worked and it also was the trigger to released the banked up emails!
I ran the commands macom suggested:
Codejournalctl -u postfix@-.serviceThere were a lot of warnings/failures
connect #1 to subsystem public/cleanup: Connection refused
(#1 to #10)
I then ran:
Codeomv-salt deploy run postfix....checking back this morning, I believe this has done the trick.
