Sender/reply address and email domain setup using Virtual Media Key installed on IBM System x3650 M3 Servers

Hello experts,

we have recently built several VMware ESXi 5 hosts using IBM System x3650 M3 boxes equipped with the optional Virtual Media Key to enable its additional systems management capabilities (mainly remote graphics, keyboard and mouse and e-mail notifications and alerts).
Sadly so far we have been unable to get e-mail notifications and alerts to reach the intended recipients. My feeling that the default Virtual Media Key configuration uses a sender/reply address or an invalid email domain in a format such that when e-mail notifications and alerts gets sent to external email servers they get dropped as the sender/reply address is not valid or the sender domain itself is not a valid email domain.
Has anyone out there already managed to get e-mail notifications and alerts to reach the intended recipients as expected ?
Any help/information based on past experience will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Massimiliano
