Configuring email alerts [ReadyNAS 104]
I've had my ReadyNAS 104 for a few months now and generally seems to be pretty good so I don't have any complaints. Something that has annoyed me though is the amount of email alerts that I am getting from it. Don't get me wrong, I want alerts enabled for things like drive failures and temperature alarms however I am also getting emails every time a scheduled task on the data volume is run (disk defragmentation, for example). I notice that these roughly correspond to the logs (various categories of alerts, notice, warning and error) with a few exceptions (snapshot creation is not emailed however defragmentation is). I don't seem to be able to find any way to disable just these lower level 'notice' events. I suppose I could just create a filter for my email to have it auto-delete them but that doesn't seem like an ideal solution, or have them go to a seperate mailbox but then I might risk missing a critical one.
I'm sure there must be some simple solution to this as I suspect a lot of people will have a similar problem to me, any ideas? (Using the latest ReadyNAS OS 6.4.1)

Re: Configuring email alerts [ReadyNAS 104]
Welcome to the forum.
Today the best you can do is create email filters in the receiving mail client. A very similar idea is posted on the ideas exchange here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Idea-Exchange-for-ReadyNAS/Improved-Alert-functionality/idi-p/10144...
You might want to vote for it, and perhaps add a comment to fill in your specifics. While you are there, perhaps look at the other ideas and vote for the ones you think you'd use.
