Slech, thanks for your help.. I did it with the other option that you said before Mailsend.exe, and now it is working perfectly..
Now, here is another question.. I am using The Dude to monitore Mikrotik Routers that are running BGP and OSPF.. do you know if I can use those Email Notifications to let me know if the BGP or OSPF goes down??
carlossu, you are welcome!
You can start with probes on this topic: Probe Thread
Also found on the forum:
MIkrotik BGP Monitoring
Email me if BGP session status in NOT established
Monitoring OSPF path status, is it possible?
Really helpful article. I am new with Windows 8 and your article helped me to understand how the e-mail works with the Windows. I was confused how to send to two e-mail address and your thread helped me to fix these issues and clarify many doubts. Great job. You can submit this to twc internet to help all Windows users.
Hi!
My local network behind a proxy server. And for the correct operation of the notification dude, you must specify the proxy settings in the configuration -serverv stunnel.
This my working config given a proxy server:
(I used SMTP server Yandex. Why it is only through it the connection was successfully.)
Stunnel:
socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1
socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1
#debug = 7
#output = stunnel.log[ssmtp]
accept = 465
client = yes
connect = 192.168.XXX.XXX:8080
protocol = connect
protocolAuthentication = basic
protocolUsername =your_proxy_login
protocolPassword =your_proxy_password
protocolHost = smtp.yandex.ru:465
#debug = 7
#output = stunnel.log - disabled after debugging
192.168.XXX.XXX:8080 - proxy server
Blat:
rem @echo off
set dir=C:\blat
set logname=%dir%\blat.log
set smtpsender=dude-XXXXXX@yandex.ru
set smtpserver=127.0.0.1
set smtpport=465
set smtpuser=dude-XXXXXX@yandex.ru
set smtppwd=XXXXXXXXXX
set mailto=XXXXXXXXXXXXX@gmail.com
set subject=%1
set body=%2
IF NOT EXIST %logname% echo ====================== Start of file ====================== > %logname%
echo. >> %logname%
echo ====================== %time% ====================== >> %logname%
C:
CD %dir%
echo CMD: blat.exe -to %mailto% -f %smtpsender% -server %smtpserver% -port %smtpport% -u %smtpuser% -pw %smtppwd% -subject %subject% -body %body% >> %logname%
blat.exe -to %mailto% -f %smtpsender% -server %smtpserver% -port %smtpport% -u %smtpuser% -pw %smtppwd% -subject %subject% -body %body% >> %logname%
set smtpsender=set smtpuser=your accaunt yandex
set smtppwd=your password yandex
set mailto=but you can specify any address - what you need. I have tried the service Beeline 7909XXXXXXX@sms.beemail.ru. It works, but SMS comes with a delay, and it is unacceptable. So I made a notification to gmail and alert comes time for my smartphone.
Just use Mail Alert Simple Mailer:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mail-alert/
You don’t need any makeshifts like Blat and Stunnel. Mail Alert supports SSL/TLS natively.

Hello, edgars04!
Can you try the following solution: Dude - Email notification through Gmail on Windows - via mailsend.
If not, we can continue to solve your issue with blat.

Thanks,
Hello, David1234!
As I see in your stunnel.conf, your log is enabled. Please verify that stunnel working and if yes, can you look in its log file.
This solution working using stunnel for secure connection and it receiving connection from the blat and then connect to the gmail.
Thank you!
I’m sorry - but i didnlt understand what you want me to do
how can I know if my stunnel is working? I don;t see any log file in it’s folder.
?
Thanks ,
David1234,
Also you can try to move on another solution which not require a stunnnel: Dude - Email notification through Gmail on Windows - via mailsend.
Thank you!
I think the problem was that the servids wasn’t running…
strange but at least we found it
Thanks !
Why you are still using Blat with stunnel? There is a better solution like Mail Alert Simple Mailer (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mail-alert/) which natively supports SSL/STARTTLS and stores encrypted SMTP password in configuration file.
