No Email on Conection

[bbucha_stk]

I don't know when I started not getting emails, but I recently updated to latest NT.
Initialize()
ConnectionLossHandling = ConnectionLossHandling.KeepRunning;
protectedoverridevoid OnConnectionStatus(ConnectionStatus orderStatus, ConnectionStatus priceStatus)
{
if (dataFeed == ConnectionStatus.ConnectionLost)
{
SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Connection to Order Server Lost!", "Please verify that the server's internet connection is still valid");
PlaySound(@"C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 7\sounds\Alert4.wav");
}
if (dataFeed == ConnectionStatus.Connecting)
{
SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Connecting", "Trying to reestablish Order Server connection");
PlaySound(@"C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 7\sounds\Alert4.wav");
}
dataFeed = orderStatus;
if (dataFeed == ConnectionStatus.Connected)
{
SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Connected", "Check that strategy is active");
PlaySound(@"C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 7\sounds\Alert4.wav");
}
}

Hello,

Thanks for the forum post.

Can you please check to see if you can receive emails with the Control Center->Tools->Options->Misc tab Test email function.

I look forward to assisting you further.

I entered my email adress when I pressed the test <btn> I got a failed to send mail: Failure sending mail.

What email provider are you using here? Have you tried already entering their SMTP server under Tools > Options > Misc?

[bbucha_stk]

My email address is [email protected]

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

For your Yahoo address you would need to have a Yahoo Plus account to be able to use POP3 / SMTP access with it, are you using such an account or would it be a free one?

[bbucha_stk]

My yahoo account is the free one, and it has been working just fine with NT until recently , I believe when I upgraded to the latest NT

If you want do a email to my account and I will let you know if your was sent.
Of course your replys to this blog are reaching my email account by the way...

[NinjaTrader_Bertrand]

Yes, the emails generally work well with the free account, but it would not feature Pop3 / SMTP access to our knowledge and this is what would be needed to it up for use with the email feature directly in NT, thus you would need to have a Yahoo + account.

[bbucha_stk]

OK I will check with Yahoo, but its been working just fine for the last 6 months until I did the upgrade, so I question the response....

Its odd I just upgraded to Version 7 of NT and now the emails are working again????
