You are logging alerts to your emails. There will not be many syslogs at that level.
Try using notifications or informational just as a test. Informational will generate to many logs keep in mind.
I hope it helps.

As long as the smtp server will accept emails form the ASA's ip address then you can use it.
Also not the l"ogging recipient-address kgopinathan@bhusd.org level errors" that you have. Check if bumping the level there makes a difference.

hi we solved the problem by adding a static route in our exchange server

Hi all,
Thanks a lot. I thought of doing this and found successful. Do any one have an idea of getting ASA alerts tru SMS.
