First you have to setup the SMTP server in the general program options.
|
Enter your SMTP server, the configuration for server authentication and if your SMTP server requires POP-before-SMTP.
Connection
- Regular
Standard login without SSL/TLS
- Full SSL
Use SSL/TLS starting with the first contact to the server. Servers with full SSL/TLS mode usually don't use the standard TCP port (25).
- Auto SSL
Use SSL/TLS only if it is supported by the remote server.
Template
The From/To/Subject/Body fields are used for the e-mails which are sent by WebSite-Watcher. If you enter more than one e-mail address to the Recipient field, you have to separate them with a comma or a blank. The Subject and Body fields can contain variables, which will be replaced with real values while sending the e-mails.
Variables in the subject:
| %name% | Name of the bookmark |
| %url% | Url of the bookmark |
| %status% | Status of the last check |
| %changes50% | First 50 characters of highlighted changes |
Variables in the body:
| %name% | Name of the bookmark |
| %url% | Url of the bookmark |
| %status% | Status of the last check |
| %note% | Bookmark note |
| %changes% | Highlighted changes in text format |
The following screenshot shows a typical configuration. SMTP servers often start with "smtp", "mail" or "email" (for example smpt.domain.com or email.domain.com).
The "Send e-mail" feature must be enabled for each bookmark where you want to send an e-mail.

E-mails can be sent in HTML or in Text format, for the latter you can optionally attach the downloaded HTML files. For HTML mails the page with highlighted changes is used.
If the Recipient field or the Subject field is entered, then it will be used instead of the appropriate field in the general options. If you enter more than one e-mail address to the Recipient field, you have to separate them with a comma or a blank. The subject field supports the same variables as the configuration in the general program options.
