Can't get email to work on strategy

[dukeb]

This is a very simple strategy. Cameron helped me out by getting the diamond to print. My intent was to have an email sent each time SMA condition was met.
I put this in the code, with my actual email address. Put strategy on 5 min bar chart. The diamond printed but I received no email.
Suggestions?
Regards,
Duke

if (SMA(50)[0] > SMA(50)[1])
{
DrawDiamond("My diamond" + CurrentBar, false, 0, Low[0] + -2 * TickSize, Color.Blue);
SendMail("", "email addr here", "test alert", "success");

Hello dukeb,
You must mention a email address from where you are sending the email.

Instead of using

SendMail("", "email addr here", "test alert", "success");

please use the below code

SendMail("your email address", "email address where you want to send the alert", "test alert", "success");

Also please make sure you have configured your email settings properly

In Control Center menu bar goto Tools>Options>Menu tab and please set the correct email settings.

You can refer to this post which lists some of the popular email clients

I followed your instructions and emails began magically appearing.
NT has the best support. I don't know of any other product that is supported this well.
Thanks with gratitude, again...
