I'm trying to get email and SMS notifications working. What am I missing? I have an ASUS RT-AC68P router. My Heatmeter is on a static IP of 192.168.2.225
Anyone that has set this up that could lend a hand that would be great.
Network setup on HeatMeter
IPv4 address 192.168.2.225
IPv4 netmask 255.255.255.0
IPv4 gateway 192.168.2.1
IPv4 broadcast 192.168.2.255
Disable DHCP for this interface is checked.
SMTP Email Client
Server Host smtp.gmail.com
Server Port 465
Email Myemail@gmail.com
Requires Auth Checked
Account User Name Myemail@gmail.com
Account password mypassword
Enable TLS/SSL encryption Checked
Use STARTTLS unchecked
Verify server cert unchecked
From system log

Jan 4 06:25:55 OpenWrt user.notice lmalarm: Sending email from HeaterMeter <XXXX@gmail.com> to Marc Strickland <XXXX@gmail.com>

Jan 4 06:39:44 OpenWrt user.err lucid[2904]: Error sending data to 192.168.2.1: 32
Did some more testing and was able to setup Outlook 2013 to connect to an external mail server on port 465 so I know that my ISP nor my router are blocking the port.
