## What this PR does Adds an optional email receiver configured through `alerta.alerts.email`. It is disabled by default. Alerts carrying `notify_email="true"` are emailed when their severity is in `severities`, which defaults to critical and major. `alertnames` also selects platform alerts without changing their rules. Earlier heartbeat and blackhole routes keep precedence. Email routes preserve the Alerta copy through a preceding route with `continue: true`, and they inherit the root `group_by`, so Alerta and email agree on how many notifications one alert produces. The SMTP password is read from a Secret with a fixed name, `alertmanager-email-password`, mounted through `VMAlertmanager.spec.secrets` and referenced by `auth_password_file` when `authUsername` is set. The platform operator creates that Secret. The name is not configurable, because a tenant-chosen name would let a `Monitoring` writer mount any Secret of the namespace into Alertmanager and send its `password` key to an SMTP host of their choosing, and no tenant role can read those Secrets by any other route. `to` takes an address or a comma-separated list, and `from` takes one address, each with an optional display name. The accepted form is narrower than RFC 5322 on purpose, so that a bad address fails the render instead of being dropped when the first alert fires. The local part must be a dot-atom. A display name is a run of atoms or quoted strings without the specials `net/mail` rejects in a phrase. A domain literal must hold a dotted-quad IPv4 address. IPv6 literals are rejected because their syntax differs across Go mail parser versions. Template actions are rejected, because Alertmanager expands both fields as templates before it parses them. Quoted local parts, comments and a pasted `mailto:` prefix fail the render as well. `smarthost` must be `host:port`, where the host is a host name or a bracketed IP address. A bracketed value must be a valid IPv4 or IPv6 address, so `[deadbeef]:25` and `[1:2:3:4::5:6:7:8]:25` fail the render. The port must be between 1 and 65535 and must not have leading zeros, so `smtp.example.org:0465` fails too. `repeatInterval` is checked with Alertmanager's own duration grammar and limits. Units go in descending order, each at most once, and the value must be non-zero and below the int64 overflow, so what renders is what Alertmanager loads. Partial configuration fails the render and names the fields still set, so clearing the addresses to turn email off tells the operator which leftovers to clear. Subject and body templates are not exposed. Alertmanager parses them per notification, and a broken one surfaces only in a log the tenant cannot read. Checks run for this change. - The monitoring chart suites pass with 228 tests in `packages/system/monitoring` and 16 in `packages/extra/monitoring`. 117 of them are in the two email test files. - 234 address inputs were rendered through the chart. 91 were accepted and 143 rejected. Every accepted input executes as a template and passes `net/mail.ParseAddressList`, including the one-address check for `from`, on Go 1.25.8, 1.26.4 and 1.27.1. - Widening the IPv4 octet from `25[0-5]` to `25[0-9]` fails 4 tests. Putting back the loose `\[[0-9A-Fa-f:.]+\]` domain literal fails 19 tests. Replacing the group-count guard for compressed IPv6 smarthosts with `true` fails the `[1:2:3:4::5:6:7:8]:25` test. - `make generate` with cozyvalues-gen v1.6.0 leaves the tree unchanged. SMTP delivery against a real relay has not been tested. ### Screenshots No dashboard/UI change. ### Downstream repositories Walked the trigger map against the diff. `packages/extra/monitoring` gains values fields, so its README and schema changed. `monitoring` is in the website Makefile `SERVICES` list, and that reference page regenerates from `README.md` automatically on the next stable tag, so there is no manual follow-up to link. The terraform provider does not model the monitoring service, as there is no such resource under `internal/provider`, so there is nothing to update there either. No package is added or renamed, and no CRD, tooling or node contract is touched. - [x] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ansible-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/ansible-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ccp](https://github.com/cozystack/ccp) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/external-apps-example](https://github.com/cozystack/external-apps-example) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/examples](https://github.com/cozystack/examples) - follow-up: ### Release note ```release-note feat(monitoring): add optional email alerting through alerta.alerts.email, with configurable severity and alert-name selection and an SMTP password read from the fixed Secret alertmanager-email-password ```
