Description
This
command modifies the settings that are established for an email recipient.
Standard rules regarding names apply; therefore, it is not possible
to change a name to emailusern, where n is
a number.
Note: Before the usertype parameter
can be set to support, the -warning and -info flags
must be set to off.
Remember: When considering e-mail addresses:
- Alphanumeric characters and additionally underscore (_),
at symbol (@), and dot (.) characters
are permitted.
- There must be exactly one @ character in the
string, and the @ characters must not start or end
the string.
- A plus (+) character is permitted
before the @ character.
For syslog servers, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
servers, and email users with type set to
local, the valid combinations
of notification types are:
- error, warning, and info
- error and warning
