trying to set up controller for emails

[gqjeff]

I use USB connection for controller to comp. I am running firmware 5m and software 5.0.0.9. I use gmail for emails also. So my question is what do I put in these boxes

mailserver SMTP ???
my name of course my name
my email address do I use my gmail address?

do I click mailserver requires authentification?
then in these do I use my gmail email address as the user name and my password for the password?

Also it says PORT 25 standard do I have to do anything here?

Any and all help would be great this is about the only thing I have not gotten to work with messing and help from others along the way.

Then I type the email address I want it sent to as recipient and I can specify what I want sent and also when.

Thanks in advance

also when I hit test a black screen comes up saying windows\system32\cmd.exe

I wonder if the smtp client is missing in the new installation or if it's permission issue with vista/windows 7

[gqjeff]

how can I find out or do you see anything I can do to get this to work?

[boboxx]

Matthias could tell us the mame of the file they are including we could see and we could also test using the command line

[gqjeff]

hmm not sure what you mean....

[gqjeff]

ok I think I got it working... But we shall see when the set time comes if it still works as my program freezes up after a long pause of using it.

Got it to send emails when I hit test. Now the problem I have and have always had with the software is that is freezes up and doe snot work after a short time... This is starting to piss me off.... So in other words it does not work because the software always fails...

do you use the newest USB-driver?
maybe you also try the newest ProfiLuxControl 5.0.0.11
