Hi there

 

After some guidance/alternative methods of sending email notifications from my CCTV (dahua) running on Netgear ReadyNAS Surveillance app so that Xtramail do not think I am sending spam - even though they are from me to me.

 

I have been working hard to get the sensitivity right over the last few days and I am guessing that all the emails been sent plus some alerts from my NAS contributed to my account being locked last night. Support has unlocked it and suggested the issue was someone trying passwords to gain access.

 

Objective is to get the email with a snapshot of who/what triggered the motion.

 

Have had a look at AWS SES as an option.

Like others, create a seperate gmail account for your camera alerts and use the gmail smtp server directly..  

 

If you then want to get really smart, you can put a script on gmail that will pull attachments out into google drive.  Making for a nice scrollable interface.

 

I think I have a script somewhere doing this.  But I now dump to a folder and use the google photos uploader for uploading to the camera gmail accounts photo library.
