I'm trying to set up alert notifications. I have to program it myself, because SE isn't allowed to do it with OEM.
As far as I can see from the documentation, this should be all that is necessary:
conn / as sysdba
exec dbms_aqelm.set_mailhost(mailhost=>'127.0.0.1')
exec dbms_aqelm.set_mailport(mailport=>25)
exec dbms_aqelm.set_sendfrom(sendfrom=>'alert@noreply')


DECLARE
  reginfo             sys.aq$_reg_info;
  reg_list            sys.aq$_reg_info_list;
BEGIN
  reginfo := sys.aq$_reg_info(
                      'sys.alert_que',
                      DBMS_AQ.NAMESPACE_ANONYMOUS,
                      'mailto://me@myaddress', 
                      HEXTORAW('FF'));
  reg_list  := sys.aq$_reg_info_list(reginfo);
  DBMS_AQ.REGISTER(
    reg_list     => reg_list, 
    reg_count    => 1);
  COMMIT;
END;
/

but this gives me:
ORA-24940: invalid combination of ANONYMOUS namespace, default presentation and
e-mail receive protocol
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_AQ", line 737
ORA-06512: at line 11

I must be missing something! Probably something very basic. There is nothing in any trace files.
Has anyone done this already? Can you share the code? Or give me any advice?
Thanks.

If I try the AQ namespace, I get this:
orcl>DECLARE
  2    reginfo             sys.aq$_reg_info;
  3    reg_list            sys.aq$_reg_info_list;
  4  BEGIN
  5    reginfo := sys.aq$_reg_info(
  6                        'sys.alert_que',
  7                        DBMS_AQ.NAMESPACE_AQ,
  8                        'mailto://me@myaddress',
  9                        HEXTORAW('FF'));
 10    reg_list  := sys.aq$_reg_info_list(reginfo);
 11    DBMS_AQ.REGISTER(
 12      reg_list     => reg_list,
 13      reg_count    => 1);
 14    COMMIT;
 15  END;
 16  /

DECLARE

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-25257: consumer must be specified with a multi-consumer queue
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_AQ", line 737
ORA-06512: at line 11

which I don't understand at all: I can't see an attribute in the aq$_reg_info type where I can specify a consumer.

I've got rid of the error - it just doesn't send any emails when an alert is raised. Help! I must be missing something.

This is what compiles, I have to create and nominate the subscriber and the agent:
exec dbms_aqadm.add_subscriber('sys.alert_que',-
aq$_agent('alert_scott','',0));
exec dbms_aqadm.enable_db_access(agent_name=>'alert_scott',-
db_username=>'scott');

exec dbms_aqelm.set_mailhost(mailhost=>'127.0.0.1')
exec dbms_aqelm.set_mailport(mailport=>25)
exec dbms_aqelm.set_sendfrom(sendfrom=>'scott_alert@noreply')


DECLARE 
  reginfo             sys.aq$_reg_info;
  reg_list            sys.aq$_reg_info_list;
BEGIN
  reginfo := sys.aq$_reg_info(
                      'sys.alert_que:alert_scott',
                      DBMS_AQ.NAMESPACE_AQ,
                      'mailto://me@myemail', 
                      HEXTORAW('FF'));
  reg_list  := sys.aq$_reg_info_list(reginfo);
  DBMS_AQ.REGISTER(
    reg_list     => reg_list, 
    reg_count    => 1);
  COMMIT;
END;
