Orbi 870 / RBE871 - No Email notification in orbilogin web UI

I just upgraded to the newly released WiiFi 7 Orbi 870.  The orbilogin.com web UI seems to be missing the Security / Email notification option to periodically email the logs via my SMTP server.  Is it elsewhere or unavailable until a new firmware release?

 

This is instructions page is for Nighthawk, but my old Orbi 960 had a similar email setup option: https://kb.netgear.com/24057/How-do-I-set-up-security-event-email-notifications-on-my-Nighthawk-router

      OK, but I am surprised and disappointed that the newer/expensive/high end Netgear Orbi routers have decided to drop reasonable features for their customers.
