Hi,

The jail BadBots has been started successfully.

Output will be buffered until 5 lines are available.

Regards,

I had the same problem and found this: http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/Sendmail

You want to look in jail.local or jail.conf within the /etc/fail2ban directory. In that file search for "[email protected]" and replace it with a proper email address. Then flush your mail queue on your server.

Interesting.

In my jail.conf they all are sent to root@machine name. In my /etc/aliases file, it have root pointing to my e-mail address. I've tested it and I do receive e-mails correctly.
