Go under file /etc/systems/local/alert_actions.conf:

Modify the parameter under email by adding "sslink=$results.url$" :

[email]
command = $action.email.preprocess_results{default=""}$
"sslink=$results.url$"

You should start to receive your PDF's.

Is this right? My [email] command setting already has that, along with a ton of other parameters.
