tawxic Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 As the title and sub-title indicate, I have set up a webcam at home that has an option of sending me an email if it detects motion. However, it requires an smtp server. I have tried two "free smtp" programs (that set up a local smtp server) but they do not work.Does anyone know of a public-access smtp server? I will only be sending like one email a day, really, if that.fake edit: ****, it's been forever since I've logged in! +1 to me for remembering my password!

uid0 Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Open relay mail servers get used by spammers, so people tend not to run them intentionally.Which mail server software have you tried? Mercury isn't bad. Alternatively, just use your ISP's smtp server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
