bmail alert with webmon

This thread is for the BMAIL.EXE support for Webmon program.

GMAIL, Comcast and any other SMTP server that requires authentication does not work.
Internal work email servers might work like MS Exchange, and SprintPCS works great.

Here is an example:
bmail -s smtp.server -t youremail@address.com -f youremail@address.com -h -a "Subject" -b "Body of message"

replace "smtp.server" with your own email server name.

I used this version of bmail.exe
http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions/cmdlinemail/cmdlinemail.htm

Here are the steps:

1. put the bmail.exe in C: root folder
2. In webmon go to Tools -> Preferences
3. Check the Run Command box
4. type in the following EXACTLY in this order: c:\\bmail.exe -s smtp.sprintpcs.com -t 9515551212@messaging.sprintpcs.com -f 9515551212@sprintpcs.com -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "%1 %3 %2"
5. press ok.

If you like to test it, type this exact line in a command prompt (Start -> Run -> CMD)




I must have missed it, but what deal are you discussing??

Sorry. You are right. We are discussing the PS3 alerts and this topic should go into another forum.

Mod, please move this to the computer help forum.


Can you give a step-by-step of how to set this up?

I wanted to forward the alerts to my Verizon cell phone

1st. make sure you can get email from Verizon email address like: yourphonenumber@verizonwireless.net or something like that.

The steps are above.


Well, my phone does accept it.

I am at work and we have an exchange server. I tried using "smtp", "mail" and the IP Address, but I can't seem to get it to work.

This is what I am looking like:
C:\\bmail.exe -s <ipaddress> -t 1234567890@vtext.com -f name@domain.com -h -a "PS3 Alert" -m

I tried using "mail" and "smtp" instead of the IP but no luck. I am using OL2003.

Not sure what else to try..

I use exchange as well and it works for me. PM me your command line and I will try it from here.


just wondering if you got the alerts to work with verizon...can't seem to figure out what the right ip address and domain names should be. thanks


well after hours of slaving away...i figured out a working cmd line for verizon phones:
bmail.exe -s smtpsp.vtext.com -t yournumber@vtext.com -f <some email address> -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "%1 %3 %2"

you can use smtpsp or smtpsp1. hope it helps


Does anyone know the smtp server address for Cingular? This is what I have but im not sure if its right c:\\bmail.exe -s smtp.cingularME.com -t phonenumber@cingularME.com -f phonenumber@cingularME.com -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "%1 %3 %2"


For those who can't get bmail to work because the smtp server you are using requires authentication. You can try using BLAT.EXE from http://www.blat.net/ it supports authentication.


has anybody been able to successfully get this to work with cingular?

can someone explain how to use blat?


Here I made a new topic for BLAT:

Using BLAT.EXE with WebMon

close. replace smtp.cingularME.com with "atlmail.cingularme.net" also phonenumber@cingularme.net

So a working cingular command should be:
c:\\bmail.exe -s atlmail.cingularme.net -t phonenumber@cingularme.net -f phonenumber@cingularme.net -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "%1 %3 %2"

there are other smtp servers but this is the only one that worked for me. I am on standard cingular network (not former att)

you might concider removing the -b "%2" as this causes it to be 2 messages instead of one.


Thanks, yea that stmp server is what I needed, I couldn't find it on Cingular's web page anywhere.


So your saying it should look like c:\\bmail.exe -s atlmail.cingularme.net -t phonenumber@cingularme.net -f phonenumber@cingularme.net -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "%1 %3

to make it only send 1 message instead of 2?

I took off all of the -b stuff. I supose if you had a web enabled phone you could order from your phone, but the links did me no good. %1, %2, and %3 just gives it too much text so it wraps it to 2 messages.

you know I did exactly what you said and for some reason I still get the error message: failed to look up IP for smtp.atlmail.cingularme.net

I have regular cingular service and not former AT&T


ok i called cingular to change some settings and the atlmail thing just worked...sort of...false alarm...test #2

SWEET!!! it works...the problem was I was typing smtp.atlmail.etcccccccc

instead of just typing -s atlmail.etccccccccc


could someone help me figure out how to use this with outlook? I have already set up outlook to send emails through my gmail account, but what would I put for the email adddress? I am under a router. any help is appreciated.


Would this work with T-Mobile


I installed bmail and then tried below given command with my phone number (replaced phonenumber with my phone number) for Cingular but am not successful.
c:\\bmail.exe -s atlmail.cingularme.net -t phonenumber@cingularme.net -f phonenumber@cingularme.net -h -a "ps3 alert" -b "test message"

I dont get any error messages. It just says:
Command LINE SMTP Emailer v1.07
Copyright<C> 2002-2004 Criag.Peacock@beyondlogic.org
Opening connection to atlmail.cingularme.net [66.102.165.100] on port 25
Socket Closed (it takes several seconds to get this socket message)

After all this, I dont get any message on my Cingular phone. I tried to send it via Yahoo Mail to my cingular_number@cingularme.net and got the messsage on my cell.

Can anybody please help me in this.
Thanks
