AlexKilpatrick Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 You aren't really having gmail forward anything. Here is how it works. To send an email, the client (in this case the Aquacontroller) needs a SMTP server in order to send the email. It can be any SMTP server that will accept the request. The SMTP server will communicate with the recpient email server and transmit the message. This really has nothing to do with RoadRunner, except that they provide the network connection. Graphically: Aquacontroller -> GMail SMTP Server -> Recipient SMTP Server -> Recipient email client I think when you are normally sending email (using roadrunner), your email goes like this: Your email client -> RoadRunner SMTP Server -> Recipient SMTP Server -> Recipient email client Short answer -- using Gmail as an SMTP server for your Aquacontroller won't affect any of your other email.

AlexKilpatrick Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 On a related note, does anyone know how to make it only send out one email? Mine keeps sending out an email every couple of minutes until the alarm condition stops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
