How to configure alarms to send email

[gkman]

Hi,

I configured SMTP server & sender (lhttps://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/com.vmware.vsphere.vcenterhost.doc/GUID-467DA288-7844-...) 

I would now like to configure vCenter to send email alerts on pre-configured triggered alarms.
I don't wish to configure any new alarm definitions (not yet anyway) just have the same alarms that I see in vcenter console, be sent to me by email.
How do I do it? 

Thanks for the help.

Another option would be going to vCenter --> Alarm definitions and adding a send an email (with it's recipient address) as an action.
