Hi George,

unfortunately this was overlooked when the configuration file was
moved to the shared storage. We are currently working on a solution
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1301681)

There is a workaround if you are using the default configuration (smtp
set to localhost). You can add a forwarding rule to the /etc/aliases
file in the form "root: my@emails.com" and execute newaliases (to
update the configuration).

See for example
https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/10654/how-to-use-etcaliases-file-and-forward-file-for-a-user-at-same-time-using-sendmail/

Unfortunately, we do not have any workaround for non-local SMTP or
notification filtering settings.

We have a workaround described here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1301681#c16

It will replace the configuration file on the shared storage as needed.

Please ensure you have a valid backup of the configuration volume before touching it.

 

Regards
