sendmail Issues

[bougie]

HI, I can't get sendmail() to work, I get this error "Failed to send mail: System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: Failure sending mail. ---> System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond"

Test email does work.

Thanks.

It is now working, but sending emails non stop.

Hello bougie,

Can you confirm that when you did the test email that you received the email that will be tittle "NinjaTrader test mail" in the subject line and inside the body it will state "This is a test mail"?

Also, do you have any firewalls, antivirus, or other scanning software installed on your computer? If so, could you try disabling it and trying it again.

Hello bougie,

Glad to hear that it is working.

It may be due to the conditions where you are calling the SendMail() function. Could you post a snippet of code on the conditions you are calling the SendMail() and what you have Calculate on Bar close set to?

if(CrossAbove( RSI(14, 3),30,1) || CrossBelow(RSI(14, 3),70,1))
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert3.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Instrument.FullName", "RSI has crossed limit");


and just added this below the above code

{
// Calculate on the close of each bar
CalculateOnBarClose = true;
}

Hello bougie,

if(CrossAbove( RSI(14, 3),30,1) || CrossBelow(RSI(14, 3),70,1))
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert3.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);

SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Instrument.FullName", "RSI has crossed limit");

It is going to repeatidly call the SendMail() method because there is a ";" at the end of your Alert() marking then end of it so your SendMail() is being called on every OnBarUpdate. You may change it to the following:

if(CrossAbove( RSI(14, 3),30,1) || CrossBelow(RSI(14, 3),70,1))
{
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert3.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);
SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Instrument.FullName", "RSI has crossed limit");
}

Hello bougie,

I appoligize I put the cureley brace in the wrong posiiton. You may try this revised code:

if(CrossAbove( RSI(14, 3),30,1) || CrossBelow(RSI(14, 3),70,1))
{
Alert("myAlert", NinjaTrader.Cbi.Priority.High, "RSI Alert", "Alert3.wav", 10, Color.Black, Color.Yellow);
SendMail("[email protected]", "[email protected]", "Instrument.FullName", "RSI has crossed limit");
}
