Question Fail2ban emails with logs

Danix4u

New Pleskian
I am new to fail2ban I just migrated from Cpanel/CSF/LFD to Plesk/fail2ban.

I need to get Fail2ban to start sending me emails with logs/hitblocks and whois, I have the below action config from Plesk, but not able to make it send me logs or block hits for that IP.

Can you someone help please!?

[ssh]
enabled = true
filter = sshd
action = iptables[name=SSH, port=22, protocol=tcp]
sendmail-whois[dest="[email]user2000@gmail.com[/email]", sender="[email]user2000@domain.com[/email]", sendername="Fail2Ban", name="Fail2Ban", logpath="/var/log/secure"]
logpath = /var/log/secure
maxretry = 5
 
Any related errors in fail2ban or mail logs?
Also, make sure that actionban section in not commented in /etc/fail2ban/action.d/sendmail.conf and /etc/fail2ban/action.d/sendmail-common.conf files.
