Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Yes I have done this but I don’t get any emails in my inbox. Don’t know what I am doing wrong. By address I type in one of the addresses I got when doing a nslookup to gmail.com
I have tried all the addresses I got

Thanks for the answer but it still doesn’t work.
I wil post my settings
Server: 74.125.47.27
Port: 465
Start TLS: no
From: MikrotikHome
User: peeters1981(at)gmail.com
Password: xxxxxxxx

Than when I click apply and after Send Email I get another screen that pops up and I fill out the empty fields:
Adres: 74.125.47.27

Add a topic=e-mail action=memory to your /system logging.

The additional log info should help show what is not working correctly when you send an e-mail :slight_smile:

Try copy peetersxxxatgmail.com to CC: field

Logout MT → Login MT - email Server - 0.0.0.0

WinBox v6.34

Please try setting your e-mail server using the CLI. We have found setting this in Winbox does not work in the RoS 6.34 or 6.33.5 and reported it to Mikrotik.

/tool e-mail set address=x.x.x.x
