Send notifications via e-mail
=============================
[⬅️ Go back to main README](../../README.md)
> ℹ️️ **Info**: This module can not be used on its own but requires the base
> installation. See [main README](../../README.md) for details.
Description
-----------
This module adds support for sending notifications via e-mail. A queue is
used to make sure notifications are not lost on failure but sent later.
Requirements and installation
-----------------------------
Just install the module:
$ScriptInstallUpdate mod/notification-email;
Also you need a valid e-mail account with smtp login credentials.
Configuration
-------------
Set up your device's
[e-mail settings](https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Tools/email).
Also make sure the device has correct time configured, best is to set up
the ntp client.
Then edit `global-config-overlay`, add `EmailGeneralTo` with a valid
recipient address. Finally reload the configuration.
> ℹ️ **Info**: Copy relevant configuration from
> [`global-config`](../../global-config.rsc) (the one without `-overlay`) to
> your local `global-config-overlay` and modify it to your specific needs.
### Sending to several recipients
Sending notifications to several recipients is possible as well. Add
`EmailGeneralCc` on top, which can have a single mail address or a comma
separated list.
Usage and invocation
--------------------
There's nothing special to do. Every script or function sending a notification
will now send it to your e-mail account.
But of course you can use the function to send notifications directly. Give
it a try:
$SendEMail "Subject..." "Body...";
Alternatively this sends a notification with all available and configured
methods:
$SendNotification "Subject..." "Body...";
To use the functions in your own scripts you have to declare them first.
Place this before you call them:
:global SendEMail;
:global SendNotification;
In case there is a situation when the queue needs to be purged there is a
function available:
$PurgeEMailQueue;
