ReadyNAS RN212 - Alerts Email, NFS and default shares
OS6.10.2 1) Setting up alerts - I have tried to confiugure the EMail alerts, but it fails on sending a test mail. The host I have as smtp.hosts.co.uk on port 465, the 'From' is my Email add...

2) The default shares - Music, Pictures and Videos. I would like to create a mountable NFS share above those as 'media' (as my old ReadyNas Duo had) - so I can keep structures the same across the NASs. Can I just delete the existing shares and recreate them under a new 'media' share? Any implications?
You can delete the default shares, and create your own media share. That could have subfolders for Music, Pictures and Videos - or not, that is up to you.
You can't create shares within shares though (which couldn't be done on the Duo either).
The mount for NFS will be /data/media - unlike the Duo, the volume is included in the exported path.
Point 1 - EMail alerts.
Been playing with this and it seems that the NAS needs the posrt to be set to 587 rather than 465. All the other settings remained the same and just the port was changed - the alerts fire off ok.
