The most common use of email notification rules is to inform you when a serious error has occurred in the system or in a channel. To create a notification rule that tells Iguana to send you an email message when a system error has occurred or a channel has stopped because an error has occurred, perform the following steps:

• Click the Settings tab at the top right of the screen. In the Settings screen, click E-mail Notification.

• Click the Notification Rules tab.

• In the Email Notification Rule screen, click Add a Rule.

• Select the Standard Rule radio button. A screen appears, enabling you to configure the email notification rule:

• From the Source Type list box, select [All Entries].

• From the Type list box, select Errors.

• In the Limit of Messages Sent field, type 10.

• Select the Include Log Entry Text in Email Message check box. This will include the contents of the error in your email message.

• From the Recipients list box, select one or more users or groups that will receive notification email messages when a log message appears that matches the criteria defined in this rule.

• Leave all other fields unchanged.

The Edit Rule screen should now look something like this:

• Click Save Changes to create this rule:
