Email notifications not working?

[allphoto]

I have set up general email account.
I can send emails from the system.
but I dont see any notifications being sent.
Ive tried with many test accounts with Tasks, Meetings, Opportunities etc.
nothing works

in Administration » Notifications:
i have all checked all in: Notifications upon assignment, Send email notifications about mentions in posts (...) etc.

so what is the problem here?
I'd appreciate some help

Hello.

It works. Have you configured the smtp connections in the Administration -> Outbound Emails?

yes,
as I said. I can send test email, or send emails from the emails section.
that works fine.
its just that any notifications emails are not being sent and I dont know why ?

Check if these notifications aren't in your spam box. Also, go to Administration -> Scheduled Jobs -> Send Email Notifications. Is it active? Check in its log if there some failed job, or that which has the running status?

ok in the shceduled jobs i can see:
Note: Add this line to the crontab file to run Espo Scheduled Jobs:
* * * * * cd /var/www/html/EspoCRM; /usr/bin/php -f cron.php > /dev/null 2>&1

so i understand that the emai notifications require cron?
where is the cron tab file located?

So I understand that email notifications require cron?

Yes, the cron is necessary. Read the documentation to define how to configure the crontab file https://www.espocrm.com/documentatio...etup-a-crontab.
