Sending email alert notifications through Gmail with a secure SSL connection
-
Hello,
I have downloaded the trial version of Security Monitor Pro, ver. 4.3.
Can I set up this to send E-mail Notification using my Gmail Account? When I try to Send Test E-mail Message from Security Monitor Pro, I get this error on "Find outoing mail server:
"Error: SMTP protocol errror. 530.5.7.0 Must issue a START TLS command first. q58sm2625369eeh.15."
That makes sence, becuase my Outlook Gmail Email account is setup with Outoing server (SMTP = 587, and TLS as type of encrypted connection.Please advise how to solve this problems.
Thanks!

You can use Security Monitor Pro with your Gmail account.
Start TLS and SSL refer to a secure connection. When you configure the email in Security Monitor Pro, select 'Outgoing mail server requires a secure connection (SSL)'. The port number for Gmail's secure SSL connections is 465. Update the info and your email will now be sent.
