New ProfiLuxControl II V3.0.7.0

[Matthias Gross]

A new version of ProfiLuxControl can be downloaded here:
http://www.ghl-kl.de/Produkte/Aquaristik/Download/ProfiLuxControlII_V3070.exe

Brandnew feature: ProfiLuxControl is now able to send emails. These emails may have an attachment with user definable text and current data of the connected ProfiLux device.

Since the programming of the mailing features is 100% new it is possible that there occur problems while sending emails. The tests here were sufficient, but you never know what happens "in the field".

Please test it and feel free to give me feedback. If there are questions: Ask me.

Enjoy the new features.

I know that you are waiting for the instructions how to send a mail directly from the LAN/WLAN-card.
This is one of the first things I will do next year.
Maybe you can meanwhile use (and test) the new ProfiLuxControl feature...

Thanks Matthias!

I have a few questions. If you can't answer until next year, I'll be ok.

Would you please translate Steckdosenzustande?

What are the 'conditions' and how would those be set up?

When I test this, I see a command window open and then close but do not receive any email.

If I have an smtp server of smtp.email.com and a port of 123 for outgoing mail, would this be setup as: smtp.email.com:123

Many thanks and I look forward to many more wonderful things from you and your company in the coming year.

Hi

it seems i forgot a translation. Steckdosenzustände = socket states

Conditions: If this condition is true a mail will be sent
For example: You selected "At particular" time. Then the mail will be send once a day at the choosen time.

Port: the standard port is 25. It seems i should make the port adjustable. "smtp.email.com:123" doesn't work.

I'll check the translation it now...

 

[Matthias Gross]

ok, quick programming - try it with 3.0.7.1
http://www.ghl-kl.de/Produkte/Aquaristik/Download/ProfiLuxControlII_V3071.exe

- port can now be changed
- translations are complete (I hope so)

 

[elzool]

Email now works with the addition of a port number. Thanks!

I get the email but do not receive an attachment when testing.

Thanks Matthias,

I have it working great here. One suggestion would be to use the socket descriptions that are now available, however it is easy to work around by creating a mail template like the one I am using below:

My Prof. software version 3.06(2) connects via wlan, but version 3.07(1) doesn't connect.

Is there something I'm missing in terms of configuation?

When I launch 3.06, I connect -- and I can also connect to the Lantronix wireless interface.

Regards,
Erik

Hey Matthias,

Is there a reason why it has to be sent as a attachement instead of using the message body? I know that mailsend has teh option to send simpel email.... I know your away and I dont expect a answer right away.

Am I the only one that would like to see this as a regular email?

Also could you shell execute "ghlpmailsend.exe" in the SW_SHOWMINIMIZED state or completely hide it?

Weird, from my office(remotely) I was not receiving attachments from this at either my yahoo or work account.

From my house(locally) I get the attachments just fine at both accounts. I'm guessing something at work prohibited the attachments from going out?

Happy to be receiving them now.

 

[boboxx]

could it be that the message was empty and getting cought by the spam filter?

 

[elzool]

It is possible, but I have sent blank emails out before with just a subject and attachment and they went out just fine.

That was always with a web based application sending it, so possibly without a web interface it does get 'caught'. I'll ask our network guy about that and see if anything was withheld.

I use "system", not "shell execute", that's why i can't execute it minimized.
I will do some cosmetic corrections soon.
Maybe I even add the mailsend functions into my own source code.
But first I wanted to see if the functions are ok in general.
I guess I should better insert the text into the message body, not into an attachment.

 

[boboxx]

hhehe ha ok cool :c)

You should also keep the ability to attach any type of files, this way if the user has a camera setup to capture a snap shot of his tank every x number of minute to a local file it could be attached to the message :c)

You could get a text base information and a visual...

 

[boboxx]

also you should change or append to the "X-Mailer" header var, mailsend is probably on alot of spam filter reject list...

 

[Matthias Gross]

what is X-Mailer?

 

[boboxx]

it's part of the email headers...
