mod_evasive module DOSSystemCommand and DOSEmailNotify option are not working

I have installed apache2 with mod_evasive module on Ubuntu 10.04 and I would like to get an email alert whenever mod_evasive blacklist an IP. For that I have mentioned my email address in /etc/apache2/conf.d/modevasive. when I send an email from terminal /bin/echo 'test apache mod' | sudo /bin/mail -s 'test apache mod' [email protected] I will receive and email

Even If I mention it under with DOSSystemCommand it won't work for me

If trying block website using perl script and I have mentioned log file also /etc/apache2/conf.d/modevasive file and its works file so that means modules is working somehow DOSSystemCommand and DOSEmailNotify option are not working

Straight from Linode Library

Be sure MAILER is set correctly in mod_evasive.c (or mod_evasive20.c). The default is "/bin/mail -t %s" where %s is used to denote the destination email address set in the configuration. If you are running on linux or some other operating system with a different type of mailer, you'll need to change this.
