I am getting errors in emails being sent.
Zmfilter_3.log is enclosed https://pastebin.com/qCmRbhtq

Email worked before. used setup guide https://wiki.zoneminder.com/How_to_get_ ... Zoneminder

I have setup a filter as follows https://pasteboard.co/J8D2m3r.png.

When I run the above filter and hit the "list matches" button get the following screen https://pasteboard.co/J8D2Xvf.png

Would appreciate any tips to troubleshoot

I checked the errors in /var/log/mail.err

I think it is trying to send tons of email based on my filter condition (my guess). Is there a way to remove the pending email queue?

OMG the zmfilter is keeping on sending emails... How do I stop? Please help! Just want to delete the email Queue

I have unchecked OPT_EMAIL and just want to delete the Queue. Off course this is of my ignorance

Soved! For the benefit of others, I deleted all entries in the following tables:

• Events_Day

• Events_Hour

• Events_Week

• Events_Month

• Logs

When testing emails and filters, make sure to limit results to 1.

Also once a specific event is sent, it is flagged in the db, and will not send again.
