Not receiving notifications emails from Virtualmin server

hi,

I have set the server to sent notification emails (like for updates available, servers created, etc ) from myserver@domainABC.com .
I added domainABC.com to the server, everything configured (DKIM, spf, etc).
On the domainABC.com virtual server , I configured it to forward to my_addresse@gmail.com

I can manually send from myserver@domainABC.com to my_addresse@gmail.com without any problem , gmail accept it as fully authenticated.

but I have never received any notification email from the server, even if I activated the updates notification to receive on my_addresse@gmail.com.

Since this is controllable I’d suggest you set up a server so that you have some idea of the time to search in the logs and see what you come up with.
Mail
Webmin
For starters.
Webmin has it’s own section.

I just set up a test and it worked. Seems like a nice notification to have in case someone gains access and starts running commands?

You might want to check the mail log for no-reply@whatever-your-mailserver is. This should tell if the attempt is even made:

If you an email ID you can search that:
