Title: Email notifications in BAMT
Post by: superfastkyle on April 30, 2012, 06:52:52 AM
I want to setup email notifications in BAMT. I currently use GMAIL. But I suppose your password is sent clear text when you use this option am I correct? Is there a secure way to use it or should I setup another email solely for this purpose. THANKS

Just make sure you use SSL or TLS. Then it connects securely just like any other mail client would.

These instructions are for POP, too, but the SMTP part is what matters for what you are doing.
