Reactivating CSF "Server Check" email

Some time back our main server on stopped sending "Server Check" emails with the current CSF Status to me.

I used to get them once a week::Subject "Server Check on [ Server Name ] "

Our hosting support cannot get them resumed.
Setting the "Generate and email this report [ weekly ] to the email address (My Address) on the "Check Server Security" page makes no difference.
It runs csf v9.25.

There does not seem to be a "Send Email Now" option for testing.
The sending email address is whitelisted and all other CSF / CXS emails from the server get to me.

Any ideas as to how to get the email working again?

Thanks for any help,

Merv

The Server Check email is generated from the cronjob listed in /etc/cron.d/csf-cron which is created when scheduled from the UI. You need to check that the job is present and then check your cron log as to why it did not trigger.
