unable sending mail - page 3

[[Deleted]]

For what it's worth...

I think I have found a bug in the email setup. I first set up my email parameters with an invalid parameter: for the "From" I had "Forex Robot". I ran the test, and the Journal entries clearly indicated that value was incorrect.

I have since changed it, and with each subsequent test, it still tells me that "Forex Robot" is an invalid From address. There is no such parameter!

Clearly it is retaining the old value somehow. I had to exit and restart MT4 for this to clear.

GMX SOLUTION:

I cannot comment on the limit of 26 messages but if people ever ask how to make mt4's email alerts work these days, for example with the proposed gmx.com free email server they need to log into gmx.com Settings page to enable "Send and receive emails via external program" and click Save button.
