Description Eduardo Minguez 2024-05-23 14:19:04 UTC 
Installing required packages:

https://documentation.suse.com/smart/systems-management/html/SLE-Micro-5.5-admin/index.html#tr-up-automatic-updates-configuring-notifications-packages

These packages doesn't seem to be available on a vanilla SLE Micro 5.5:

```
edgedns:~ # SUSEConnect -s
[{"name":"SUSE Employee subscription for SUSE Linux Micro x86_64","identifier":"SLE-Micro","version":"5.5","arch":"x86_64","status":"Registered","regcode":"xxx","starts_at":"2024-05-03 13:40:33 UTC","expires_at":"2025-05-03 13:40:33 UTC","subscription_status":"ACTIVE","type":"internal"}]
edgedns:~ # rpm -qa |grep -i mail
edgedns:~ #
```

If I try to install them:
```
edgedns:~ # transactional-update pkg in systemd-status-mail mailx
Checking for newer version.

Same applies for older versions (5.4 at least)
