Hi,

I just configured Fail2ban to send me email-notifications. It is working great for the services for which I configured fail2ban (owncloud and wordpress) but it doesn't work for roundcube and other services installed and configured by iredmail. Here is my jail.conf:

# Refer to /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf for more examples.
[DEFAULT]
maxretry    = 3
# attention: time is in seconds - the value of 3600 means ONE hour
bantime     = 3600
ignoreip    = 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.0/8 10.0.0.0/8 172.16.0.0/12 192.168.0.0/16
action = %(action_mwl)s
destemail = postmaster@example.com

[ssh-iredmail]
enabled     = true
filter      = sshd
action      = iptables[name=ssh, port="ssh", protocol=tcp]
#               sendmail-whois[name=ssh, dest=root, sender=fail2ban@mail.com]
logpath     = /var/log/auth.log

[roundcube-iredmail]
enabled     = true
filter      = roundcube.iredmail
action      = iptables-multiport[name=roundcube, port="http,https,smtp,submission,pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps,sieve", protocol=tcp]
logpath     = /var/log/mail.log
findtime    = 3600


[dovecot-iredmail]
enabled     = true
filter      = dovecot.iredmail
action      = iptables-multiport[name=dovecot, port="http,https,smtp,submission,pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps,sieve", protocol=tcp]
logpath     = /var/log/dovecot.log
findtime    = 300

[postfix-iredmail]
enabled     = true
filter      = postfix.iredmail
action      = iptables-multiport[name=postfix, port="http,https,smtp,submission,pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps,sieve", protocol=tcp]
#           sendmail[name=Postfix, dest=you@mail.com]
logpath     = /var/log/mail.log

[owncloud]
enabled = true
filter  = owncloud
port    = 80,443
maxretry = 3
logpath = /var/log/syslog

[wordpress]
enabled = true
filter = wordpress
port = 80,443
logpath = /var/log/auth.log

Email-notifications for owncloud and wordpress are sent to the provided email-address.

Who can help me? What do I have to change to enable email-notifications for the other services as well?

Uncomment "sendmail" in "action=".

Re: Fail2ban-email-notifications

Thanks a lot. I've added the sendmail command as well to the Roundcube and Dovecot section. Curious that it didn't work with destemail in the default section.
