Experts: Mail All Order Status Periodically - page 2

Marco vd Heijden:

Yes but make sure the terminal knows where to send it.

Thank you, and I guess I have to find a way to truncate the message to 255 characters.

[Marco vd Heijden]

Also there is a limit to the number of push notifications you can send in a certain time spam.

But you can search codebase as there are experts that send messages over Telegram, Skype, MSN and several other instant messaging systems.

You could even run a small HTTP webserver and push entire pages through FTP so that you can simply visit the url to check the orders.

Many possibilities.

Ok, I was wrong about GMX. It does require activation. I have done that. Now it says 'test message failed.'. It just doesn't work, man.

It's probably my fault...

Only if you coded the SendMail library in MT4. :P

SendMail() doesn't have a problem, you have a problem. I suggest you kindly to stop blaming others and find solution to your problem.

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.

Of course you are wrong. That's funny to see how people are saying me I am dreaming or I don't know what I am talking about when they are wrong

1° You have to configure gmail/gmx to allow external application.

2° Configure your MT4

And by the way it was ALWAYS working (except maybe on some build for a short time). 

How do I configure gmail to allow mt4 to send an email notification?

Hi people the "Problem" is gmail as it needs two factor authentication.

Here is the error you may get
