I'm trying to set it up to where the picture sends to gmail. But after I tested the feature, I saw this message in the console in red " Mail: can't determine local email address."

Can anybody help me out?
This is very important.

Your settings for sending emails are here,
Yawcam -> Motion detection -> Actions -> Send E-mail

[E-mail]

To - The e-mail address you want to send the message to.

From - The e-mail address you want the message to come from. (If the receiver replies to the message, the reply will be sent to this address.)

Smtp server - The server that actually sends the e-mail. (Check with your internet service provider which server you shall use.) If you have an gmail account can use the smtp server of gmail. More info about gmail here.

Username

Password
You have to fill in :
  • Smtp server : smtp.gmail.com
  • To : [Your_name]@gmail.com
  • Username : [Your_GMail_Username/nickname]
  • Password : [Your_GMail_Password]

smtp is the server of your internet provider

How did you get to the email settings screen? I'd like to have the motion pics sent directly to my aol so I can view it on my blackberry. Please help.

Thank you
Ed
