E-mail

[gsherwin]

I've been running 8.10 for a awhile for Z-wave security and streaming audio purposes.  I am now trying to integrate e-mail to send me messages when door sensors are tripped.  I've updated to most current snapshot and no joy with testing e-mail messages.  I've performed the postfix interactive script to get e-mail going, again no joy.

Is e-mail actually working and how if so how can I get mine to work?

Thanks

Ask and you shall receive. I use GnEeErKd's tutorial, and it will do everything that you could want, and you could even do more respectively.

Welcome, and glad to have you.

I followed the directions and everything works perfectly.  Thank you so much for the response, now the work begins on the next phase of implementation.

Guys...

los93sol wrote a Mail device that you can enable on the core via the Wizard > Core page in the web admin. you can then send commands to it to send messages, i.e. in response to mail events, instead of hacking together this duct taped thing.

I tried this method when it first came out and did not have any success in sending messages.  When the parameter calls for a string value, is it necessary to use single quotes?  I've read the requirement of single quotes when doing text to voice, but is this a requirement whenever the parameter is text?
