Where to specify email address in TDS-3

[RandyS]

I have sockets enables with email notification but when TDS-3 generates an email it addresses it to your@email.address rather than the correct email address that I specified on the Servers tab of the Configuration menu.

Where can I specify the correct address for TDS-3 to use for email notifications. Naturally, the current setup comes back undeliverable.

Hi RandyS, welcome!
Did you look in TDS > Configuration > Servers tab > right column to specify your outbox and email account?
You can test it there too!

[Randy S]

Yes. That's why I said so in my original post.

I tested it there and it works fine. But when a notification comes in of a socket connection it does not use the address I specified on the Servers tab. Instead it places your@email.address on the email.

Welcome Randy,
Servers Email Setup:
SMTP.yourisp.com
Your email : randy@yourisp.com

Int the ISP IP address leave it as tds.diamondcs,com,au
Unless you are using a proxy

Then press test. If this does not work I am not sure what the problem could be.

In the sockets configuration, top right, did you configure the right address there too? Sockets > Options

And when you use the Plugins > SMTP and try to send something from there to yourself for instance, does it come in?

[RandyS]

No Jooske, I didn't even know that was there. That fixed my problem. Thanks a bunch.

Way to go Randy, Enjoy your wekend!

[Jooske]

Glad it helps!
Hope you wonm't be notified too often! Is your firewall set OK ?

[RandyS]

Yep. My firewall is o'kay. I just opened one port to test TDS with. I really like TDS-3 and I am very appreciative of the fine forum you have here.

Thanks again.
