EmailRecv and Gmail


Mike Apr 17, 2012 02:24 PM

Hello All!!

Has anyone managed to get a CR1000 working with GMail?

I have seen several treads with issues, but none with successful conclusions.

I have the datalogger talking to GMail's server, even getting an "OK" in the result string.

The glitch is that I seem to be only able to get old emails from 4 years ago!

I only have one email in the inbox that is unread. How do I get the datalogger to read it?

Thank in advance.

A good way to control what you retrieve in EmailRecv is to use a filter string. To, From, and Subject can all be used as a filter. From the EmailRecv help in CRBasic:

"The From parameter is a filter string that can be used to control the emails the datalogger will retrieve. The string must be enclosed in quotes. Only emails with a From address that match the string are retrieved; all other messages are ignored. If a null string is entered for this parameter, "" , the filter is not used."

I would try with one or more filters. Likely, the datalogger is trying to retrieve all the messages on the server, one at a time.
