Any update on this? I’m having the same issue since starting to use the new Amcrest View Pro 2 app.

I just tried Yahoo and I couldn't get it to work. The web gui wouldn't allow me to type the spaces. I was able to manually type the password via Amcrest View Pro but it still failed. I feel like I'm back in the 90's trying to get a device to send an email, this really does not need to be this compli...

I agree, it's hard to keep up when google and others keep moving the ball. It seems to me the best solution would be for Amcrest to setup a SMTP relay for all the NVR's to use instead of the current solution. Lots of other devices do this and you don't have to setup a relay at all, you just enable e...

Ugh, from reading other threads this seems to be a widespread problem that isn’t being addressed. I use a gmail account and was able to get it working to where the test email works only to find out that even though that works, the notification emails most likely will not. This is a frustrating waste...

Revo2Maxx Thank you for your replies. I'm using a NV4116E-HS and using IPC Offline. When I power off the camera it logs the event with an IPC offline alarm and then logs again when it comes back online, but it still doesn't generate an email.I double checked that the email I'm using is setup correc...

Video loss does not appear to work. When I power off the camera it quickly registers in the log as a Network Disconnection and never logs the Video Loss. I'm guessing it's because it doesn't expect to get video from a camera that is disconnected? Seems like there should be a way within the NVR to em...

I’m referring to the camera losing connection to the NVR, which is logged as a Net Disconnection. Obviously if the network is down, emails cannot be sent. If the NVR logs the camera disconnect as an event it would be great to be able to receive an email. I thought I tried the video loss route, but w...

I had similar problems and ended setting the light to manual. They would turn on at random times and one of them will turn on and look like a strobe light flashing on and off. Even with it set to manual it will turn on sometimes and I have to power cycle the device to get it to turn off or stop flas...

Another screenshot showing the lack of "email" option.

Is there a way to turn on email alerts for Net disconnections? When a device disconnects it's logged but there doesn't seem to be an option to allow an email alert. See attached photo.
