2. Connect Notifications to Email

Once, your email is setup in TrueNas scale you can use that to receive notifications on all kinds of changes and updates within your TrueNas system. To do this

1.  Go to System > Alert Settings > +Add Alert service

2. Then simply select Email

3. I would recommend to set the level at "Notice". The level you set here is the minimum level you will receive notifications from. The lowest being INFO and the highest being EMERGENCY

Alright sweet! that was setting up your email notification service. Just to check if it works you can send your self a Test Email. 

Categories

Now, there are simply to many alerts you can get notified from, and you should just look for yourself which things you want to get notified from. By default you get an alarm for any critical change in your system so you don't need to edit to much. However, just have a look throughout the categories and if you want to get a notification from something just make sure it is at least above the minimum level threshold you set for your Email Alert service.
