I'm building an email trap that'll be part of a Video survailance system along with an alarm system.
Basically, I will have a Raspberry Pi that will have the Relay output from the alarm so when the alarm is active, it'll forward any email a certain address receives to myself. When the alarm is not active, it wont forward the emails.
The email address in question is only used for this purpose so there's no worry about weird email's being forwarded...
I have most of it working so far, but for the Email Sending function, it appears that it'll only send email to it's own email server, not outside the server... If I login to the webmail myself I can send email's out without any problem or delay, just with the Node-Red email sending it's like it'll only keep it inside the server.
Aloha Colin! Thanks for trying to help.
I installed the email nodes via the Palet Management install inside of Node Red.
I am able to connect to the email server, in another part of the flo, it connects and receives email.from the same server fine...
I don't get any error when trying to send email, it looks like it works fine. If I tell it to send email to another email on the same email server then that works, but anything sending outside the email server and it just disappears...
This all being said, I got a bit fed up and decided to try with a different email server and it sends fine from my gmail account with an App Password. so, i'm good with that for now... Would still like it to be set right though.
