Resolution

Email security allows you to setup alerts to be sent to the administrator account or any account/email you prefer.

To set that up, please follow the steps mentioned below:

Login as admin on the webUI
Go to Manage | System Setup | Server | Monitoring page
Setup email address under "Email address of administrator who receives emergency alerts"
NOTE: This email has to be an internal email address. If you have setup external Email addresses for example gmail.com or yahoo.com account, you will not receive alerts. You can also add multiple email address by separating each with a comma.
Setup address for "Postmaster for the MTA". This should be the email address to which postmaster notifications generated by the MTA should be sent.
Add the IP address of your internal mail server under "Name or IP address of backup SMTP servers" section. ( this has to be private/internal IP of your email server)
NOTE: Junk Summary notification, scheduled report and unjunking of emails will take up the IP address mentioned under Name or IP address of backup SMTP servers.
Click on Apply Changes

Once this is setup you will receive alerts generated by Email security device to the configured email address. ( below is the screen shot for reference)
