Overview 

Kerio Control can send automatic email messages (alerts) about important events. Administrators can specify:

• Default alert language.
• Recipients.
• Alert types.
• Timing.

Note: Ensure Kerio Control is connected to an SMTP server for sending alerts. This article covers the process to configure Alert Messages.

4. Click Add.
5. In the Add Alert dialog box, choose a Kerio Control user or enter an email address.
6. Choose the type of alert you want to create:
   • System alert — You can choose from many types of system alerts.
