Outdated Email Notification
Outdated Email Notification
21 Aug 2018, 04:14
Dear,
While seraching for an email notification for my indicator, I came across
1) your old video https://help.spotware.com/calgo/cbots/email-notifications
2) your old thread https://ctrader.com/forum/cbot-support/35
however they are very outdated because by then you were using calgo but now calgo is part of ctrader
i cant see reference Email notification settings From the main menu, select Preferences > Email Settings
Thank you,
Kevin

RE:
Dear Panagiotis,
Thanks for the reply. However, I'm getting an error message below:
21/08/2018 12:17:26.968 | Failed to send email "Testing email". System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at at System.Net.Mail.SendMailAsyncResult.End(IAsyncResult result) at System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.SendMailCallback(IAsyncResult result)
im using gmail
Use SSL
Server(SMTP): smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587
I even try using:
use authentification
username wishpool.one
password from my google account and from ctrader
All fail with this gmail warning:
Critical security alert
A suspicious app was blocked from accessing your account
wishpool.one@gmail.com
Thanks in advance

Hi Kevin,
Can you please try this? It is definitely a gmail issue, not a cTrader one.

RE:
Dear Panagiotis,
The first message I sent did not require any settings. after 1 message. everything failed.
Again after your message, I set allow less secure apps and only 1 message was sent then it failed again
Since renko charts have no time watching when there is a move especially when trading many currencies is nearly impossible. I just wanted to watch over my email to see whenever there is a new renko brick but the email doesn't work

RE: RE:

Hi ctid386599,
It should be your smtp server credentials. So it should be your gmail email and password.
