I ended up setting up a different gmail account and switched on the non-secure log-in function within gmail.
I changed the code to: EMailSender emailSend(“xxxxxx@gmail.com”, “password”); and I’m 100% sure the credentials are correct.
I still however get:
Connecting to [WiFiEsp] Connected to MS_DK_FB [2Ghz]
MS_DK_FB [2Ghz]
Connection: ESTABLISHED
Got IP address: 192.168.101.181
Sending status:
0
2
Could not connect to mail server
Perhaps I should mention that I’m using the Arduino Mega connected to the ESP8266 over serial.
I also send data to a remote server via the ESP8266 and all that functions well.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Code follows:
#include "WiFiEsp.h"
#include <EMailSender.h>
char ssid[] = "MY SSID"; // your network SSID (name)
char pass[] = "MY PASSWORD"; // your network password
int keyIndex = 0; // your network key Index number (needed only for WEP)
WiFiEspClient client;
#define ESP_BAUDRATE 9600
#include <Wire.h>
int sendmyemailnow_tmr;
uint8_t connection_state = 0;
uint16_t reconnect_interval = 10000;
EMailSender emailSend("myemail@gmail.com", "myemailpassword");
uint8_t WiFiConnect(const char *nSSID = nullptr,
const char *nPassword = nullptr)
{
static uint16_t attempt = 0;
Serial.print("Connecting to ");
if (nSSID) {
WiFi.begin(nSSID, nPassword);
Serial.println(nSSID);
}
uint8_t i = 0;
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED && i++ < 50) {
delay(200);
Serial.print(".");
}
++attempt;
Serial.println("");
if (i == 51) {
Serial.print("Connection: TIMEOUT on attempt: ");
Serial.println(attempt);
if (attempt % 2 == 0)
Serial.println(
"Check if access point available or SSID and Password\r\n");
return false;
}
Serial.println("Connection: ESTABLISHED");
Serial.print("Got IP address: ");
Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());
return true;
}
void Awaits() {
uint32_t ts = millis();
while (!connection_state) {
delay(50);
if (millis() > (ts + reconnect_interval) && !connection_state) {
connection_state = WiFiConnect();
ts = millis();
}
}
}
void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial3.begin(9600); //baud rate for ESP8266 and Serial Monitor
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for Leonardo native USB port only
}
Serial.print("Searching for ESP8266...");
WiFi.init(&Serial3);
if (WiFi.status() == WL_NO_SHIELD) {
Serial.println("WiFi shield not present");
while (true)
;
}
Serial.println("found it!");
Serial3.println("AT");
Serial.println("AT");
delay(5000);
if (Serial3.find("OK")) {
Serial.println("OK");
delay(1000);
}
}
void loop() {
delay(1000);
Serial.println(sendmyemailnow_tmr);
sendmyemailnow_tmr++;
if ((sendmyemailnow_tmr) > 20) {
sendmyemailnow_tmr = 0;
sendmyemailnow();
}
}
void sendmyemailnow() {
connection_state = WiFiConnect(ssid, pass);
if (!connection_state) // if not connected to WIFI
Awaits(); // constantly trying to connect
EMailSender::EMailMessage message;
message.subject = "Test Email1";
message.message = "Ciao come stai<br>io bene.<br>www.mischianti.org";
EMailSender::Response resp = emailSend.send("mornestander1971@gmail.com",
message);
Serial.println("Sending status: ");
Serial.println(resp.status);
Serial.println(resp.code);
Serial.println(resp.desc);
//EMAIL STUFF

Hi Morne,
First, try the example to send the email that you can find to the examples folder and give me the test response.
It seems correct, so there may be a network problem, but we’ll have the response with the standard test.
Bye Renzo
I have tried your suggestion running it from the sample (EMailSenderEsp8266GMailTest.ino).
Although, I have disabled the ESP8266WiFi.h library as per below code example as I am not running my code on the ESP itself, but rather on an Arduino Mega2560 and talking to the ESP8266 over serial.
If I try to enable the ESP8266WiFi.h library it complains as I’ve obviously not selected the ESP via board manager.
I’m not sure of this makes sense.
If I run it as suggested code, nothing happens and no output to the serial port at all.
