The remote server is well behaved. Good.
Change the references in /etc/smartd.conf accordingly:
eg.
/dev/hda -H -m root@localhost.localdomain
/dev/hdc -H -m root@localhost.localdomain
becomes
/dev/hda -H -m me@domain.mumble.invalid # My email address goes here.
/dev/hdc -H -m me@domain.mumble.invalid # and here
See smartd(8)
Cheers,
Michael.
