The problem was caused by bad e-mail configuration on my part. Trying another e-mail address worked right away.

I am not using HTTP proxy. I should have specified that I use Endpoint Detection and Response portal and the only place to enter my alert e-mail is under settings but there are no notifications for Detections shown in the portal.

Hi,

If you are using HTTP proxy in your environment, you need to configure your HTTP proxy from the Elements Endpoint Protection Portal for email alerting to work. How to configure EPP for Computers or EPP for Servers:

Log in to the Elements Endpoint Protection portal
Go to the Profiles page and select the modify that is used the your devices
Go to the General settings page and scroll down to the Automatic Updates section
Enter the proxy address to the Manually defined proxy address field, for example: http://10.100.4.1:8080
For the option Use HTTP proxy, select Remotely managed from the drop-down list
Click Save and publish

Once the proxy address has been configured to the device profile and the profile has been taken into use by the devices, wait for a few hours and check with an eicar file if an email alert is now sent to the recipients.

Email alerting configuration instructions can be found in this Help Guide.
