Hi,
I have the Tiny 8ch NVR, also running PSS for Mac.
I've tried to set up email in Web Service, but it fails.
Attached is a .jpg of the STMP(email) form.
Anyone tell me where the error(s) might be?
Thanks,
Tom
Good afternoon Tom,
You are missing the receiver address. You have to click the plus sing button after typing the email address you want to send it to. I can be the same address as the account you are using to send the email if you want. The plus button will let you click on it after you enter the address.

Hi,
Did that . Used the same email address as the receiver. Tried it with Heath Mail checked and unchecked as well as Attachment checked and unchecked.
Is there a mail setup on the NVR menu?
Best Tom
In the picture you sent I see no address in receiver box. Just below the attachment check box.

Hi Dan,
I added a receiver and still no connection.
User name should be full email address. Beyond that it looks right. I am unfamiliar with the settings for aol, so I do not know if your port number is right.

Dan,
I copied those settings from my Mac Mail.
Changed the user name. Same story.
Tried other email addresses, same thing happened.
This issue does not loom large for me, although it would be nice to get an email
when the camera detects motion. The timestamp would helping searching for the clip.
From a internet post on NVR mail problems:
"As for email, the #1 thing I come across is people didn't setup their DNS properly. Test with 4.4.4.2 and see if that clears things up. The #2 reason is they are trying to send email through an SMTP address their ISP doesn't approve of. Check your email settings on your PC to make sure the settings match."

If you have any ideas, please let me know.

I know Gmail's settings by heart.
smtp.gmail.com
port 465
encryption: SSL
I would suggest setting up a gmail account and using that instead. We have had the most success with gmail.

I tried a gmail account.
Filled it out with port 465 and ssl checked and got a connection failure.
No ssl checked with port 465 and no connection failure message although no
email received either.
Best,
Tom

Dan,
Scratch the last post. Gmail worked. Thanks again.
Best,

Hit me up in the chat support or call tomorrow when you have time. I want to get a remote session going to check this out. You might have a blacklisted Ip address but I doubt it. I have only come across 3-4 people that have that issue.
You can check at http://mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx
Enter your public IP on that site and they will tell you if you are. That's the only thing I cant fix if you are.

It seems to be working too well! I got a couple of hundred emails in the space of 15 minutes or so.
I'll call you tomorrow to help sort the settings. Not sure if its the sensitivity setting or something else.?
Which way is more sensitive 1 or 6?
Best,
Tom
The higher the number the more sensitive. On the detection page there is a button labeled region. That allows you to mask out areas that have motion that you do not want to trigger a motion event.

I'm having the same issue getting emails out. I only receive "test email failed". I have tried a google acct and a hotmail acct. My IP is not listed on the blacklist site.
smtp.gmail.com
port 465
encryption: SSL
Can you explain the DNS settings? Are you talking about the DNS settings in the router or in the NVR under DDNS?
I'm not certain what else could be going on?
Thanks
