The short answer is to ignore that, for the time being at least. It
doesn't have anything to do with e-mail notification.

The slightly longer answer is that, if you want to convert some alerts
into SNMP messages and relay them to another monitoring system, you
need to tell BB what utility is going to perform that function.

Cheers, Phil.
