Suricata won't send emails by itself, but it can generally work with the
same tools as Snort. It can work with BASE, although you'll need to use
barnyard/barnyard2.

Not sure about Guardian and the webmin module. It depends on how they
interact with Snort. If Guardian works with Snort's fast.log it should
work with Suricata as well.

Cheers,
