If your organization uses Znuny with multiple sender addresses — think support@, sales@, noreply@ — you've probably run into a familiar challenge: all outgoing emails go through a single, shared mail configuration. That works fine when everyone sends the same way.

Recovering from Procmail misconfigurations and spool file buildup is simple with Znuny and formail.
In a perfect world, incoming emails flow seamlessly into your Znuny ticketing system and are processed without delay. But in reality, even a small misconfiguration — especially when direct delivery is done via procmail — can quietly derail your mail intake.

Like with every other application, it's essential to know how your Znuny instance is doing. Besides the technical health of the server that your Linux administrators should be aware of, there are more things to check for when running a Znuny instance.
We use Icinga2 to monitor our infrastructure, internal development server, and hosted Znuny instances. There are many other monitoring systems like Nagios, CheckMK, etc. It does not matter which one you use, but it matters that you use one.
