Hi guys,
I've configured the elasticsearch.yml and the PUT message in order to test if I can receive some emails but I'm not receiving it and I'm getting the follow message when posting the put:
```
{
"_id": "log_error_watch",
"_version": 74,
"_seq_no": 243,
"_primary_term": 11,
"created": false
}
```
My message is the following:
```
{
"trigger": {
"schedule": {
"interval": "20h"
}
},
"actions": {
"send_email": {
"email": {
"to": "email@xxxxx.xxx",
"subject": "Testing Email Delivery Alerting",
"body": "Body content goes here"
}
}
}
}
```
the elasticsearch.yml:
```
xpack.security.enabled: false
xpack.notification.email.account:
standard_account:
profile: standard
smtp:
auth: false
starttls.enable: false
host: smtp-xxxx.xxxx
port: 25
```
Am I doing something wrong?

can you paste the output of the [Execute Watch API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/7.3/watcher-api-execute-watch.html) here or in a gist in order to be able to debug things better?

Hi @spinscale,
I could be able to make it work. The problem was that the indew was already been created and I didn't see it, so after dropt and recreate it I was able to see it's working.
