hey i tried configuring email notification using http://www.mail-archive.com/ koha@lists.katipo.co.nz/msg06181.html instructions but im getting an error in in the mail log that aliases.db and sasl_passwd cannot be found.
the university also blocked all ports apart from 8080. Can that affect the sending of the mails?
In that case I think it would be impossible to your koha box to send emails.. directly If you are inside an organization, it better to use it's smtp server. For that task I think that nullmailer is the right tool. You only need to configure it to send all email using your smtp server, If you are using ubuntu, simply install it apt-get install nullmailer and the install process will ask the address of the smtp server.
