To program an alert to be sent when motion is
detected, you need 2 email addresses: the address
of the sender which will be used by the camera,
and the address which will receive the alerts. The
camera uses the username and password of the
sender address to connect and send the email.
Configuration depends on the chosen email
provider's settings.
Note: the 2 email addresses can be the same (you
will simply be sending an email to yourself)
In our example, we use www.gmail.com:
sender-address@gmail.com sends the alerts,
recipient@gmail.com receives the alerts. Both
addresses need to have been created beforehand.
To program email alerts for motion detection, right
click on a camera in the list at the top right of the
main screen or on the screen image, then select
"Camera settings". Then go to "Network",
"Message settings":

check that the alerts are not treated as spam by any
of the addressees.
