Generate Email
Posted: Sun Nov 15, 2015 11:40 pmIs it possible to generate an email to be sent via an smtp email server??
If not this would be an awesome addition to the BASIC functions.
I would like to generate an email if a Temperature goes out of limits...
Here is what it takes to send an email via NODEMCU and LUA
Or is it possible to compile this in LUA and call it from the BASIC OS ??
Thanks

local mail_to = "xxx@gmail.com"
-- These are global variables. Don't change their values
-- they will be changed in the functions below
local email_subject = ""
local email_body = ""
local count = 0
local smtp_socket = nil -- will be used as socket to email server
-- The display() function will be used to print the SMTP server's response
function display(sck,response)
print(response)
end
-- The do_next() function is used to send the SMTP commands to the SMTP server in the required sequence.
-- I was going to use socket callbacks but the code would not run callbacks after the first 3.
