I use Nagios Core 4.4.6. I want Nagios to send services email notifications. I've used notify-host-by-email already and now want to use notify-service-by-email. If I use 'Send custom service notification' it success. But auto-alerts doesn't work.

How can I force nagios to send notification about services alerts?
