It is possible that Ironport will send notification when license is expired

We have a problem that no one will remember when the licensing will expired, can ironport send email to notify user when the license is almost expired. If not is there any other alternative way like using third party softwar?

This capability is already there.

Make sure you set the mail relay under Network>Internal SMTP Relay

Add an Alert recipient under System Administration > Alerts, and make sure they're set up for at least Warnings  (I get them all, and its not overly chatty)

You'll get one at 30 days, one at 15 days, and one when they expire.  See the below...

Also if you turn on AutoSupport (in System Administration > Alerts > Edit Settings)  and have it sent to an "Alert Recipient", it will send you an email with an XML data stream that has the expiration dates in it. See the below, specifically the "features" section   

All of this is covered in the Online Help.  Search for Autosupport.

then can manually set the alert date, like 3 months before the license is expired? Cause we might need to contact sales and get approve from the HR department to renew the licensing.
