I am new to Notification Server and am demoing Helpdesk Solution. When I configured NS 6 and sent a test email it went out fine. But when I created a new incident and tried to email the incident I get no errors, but the email does not reach the person it should.

Any one have any ideas?

More information

I created a new incident. I even clicked on the email tool and specified to send email to the owner, to the person assigned and someone else. Then I clicked on Save. I also looked at the list of contacts and I can click on the email address there and Outlook opens and correctly sends email.

Thanks.

Jane

It sounds like it could be a problem with the email message templates. Do you have any email message templates setup? Check to see if they are active.

Heres a basic one if you need one to help you get started:

- <EmailTemplate>
