Hi!
Have you entered the correct SMTP settings? https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/installation/configuration/#smtp
/Tobias Skarhed
Thank you
Under Server Admin Settings:
It is written as,
"These system settings are defined in grafana.ini or custom.ini (or overridden in ENV variables). "
Where can I find the grafana.ini or custom.ini so that I can update the settings for which you have shared link
In your Grafana directory under conf/custom.ini
In Conf folder there is no Custom.ini
There is a file called defaults.ini
And In the link (Configure Grafana | Grafana documentation) it is written as empty for all the fields. So what exactly should I enter?!
You can create a new file called custom.ini. You have to set up an SMTP server and use whatever information you have configured there.
okay, How to set up an SMTP server?

Setting up an SMTP server is not really within the bounds of a Grafana list /
forum, and also not a question we can answer without knowing what operating
system you’re on.
Assuming you’re on some Linux distribution, simply installing the packages
“exim” (might be called exim4) or “sendmail” should give you a local
listener able to send out from the Grafana server. I’ve never used postfix so
I don’t know what its default configuration is.
If you run into problems with this, though, I recommend asking for more
assistance on a list / forum specific to your operating system or distribution,
as people there will have far more specific knowledge than here.
