how to send an e-mail

[josemabera]

Hi,

Under System -> Network -> Interfaces you can double click on the NIC eth0 and there you can set the DNS and default GW (Gateway). When this is not set your controller can’t communicate with the internet and makes it impossible to send mail to Gmail (:

BR,

Hi Erwin
If  is configured
 DNS1= 8.8.8.8
 DNS2 = 8.8.4.4
and the GW also is configured
Even so it doesn't work, I can't attach Image captures to show you

Code:

-- send an e-mail
function mail(to, subject, message)
  -- make sure these settings are correct
  local settings = {
    -- "from" field, only e-mail must be specified here
    from = 'example@gmail.com',
    -- smtp username
    user = 'example@gmail.com',
    -- smtp password
    password = 'mypassword',
    -- smtp server
    server = 'smtp.gmail.com',
    -- smtp server port
    port = 465,
    -- enable tls, required for gmail smtp
    secure = 'tlsv1_2',
  }

  local smtp = require('socket.smtp')

  if type(to) ~= 'table' then
    to = { to }
  end

  for index, email in ipairs(to) do
    to[ index ] = '<' .. tostring(email) .. '>'
  end

  -- fixup from field
  local from = '<' .. tostring(settings.from) .. '>'

  -- message headers and body
  settings.source = smtp.message({
    headers = {
      to = table.concat(to, ', '),
      subject = subject,
      ['From'] = from,
      ['Content-type'] = 'text/html; charset=utf-8',
    },
    body = message
  })

  settings.from = from
  settings.rcpt = to

  return smtp.send(settings)
end

This works great for me, with gmail. Could the error be the secure line i see that you use ssl

Hi Tokatubs
I don't understand exactly what you tell me about the ssl Secure Line, how can I modify it to test what you tell me?
