Thanks, Kevin for the help in the other post.
I set up an email notification in the WebApp on my AD2PI in the settings tab by adding my gmail as destination email address --- left the rest of the fields pre-populated -- see screen shot below. When I 'test and save' the notification is saved and message reads, 'Test Notification Sent' but I don't get an email. Is there additional setup I need to do for the email to send successfully? I don't have the alarm system connected yet but assumed the test email would be sent either way.
