You can configure the ReadyNAS to send email alerts when certain system events occur, 
such as disk errors, changes in network connectivity, power supply failures, fan speed 
irregularities, and temperature violations. 

The ReadyNAS divides system events into two categories, mandatory and optional. 
Mandatory events always generate email alerts. You can control which optional system 
events generate email alerts.

When certain system events occur, the ReadyNAS sends alerts to email addresses that you 
specify using an authorized email account.

By entering your email account information, you authorize the ReadyNAS to send email 
alerts from that account.

You can control which system events generate email alerts. For more information about alert 
events, see
