Email notifications

How the heck do you get email or text notifications working? For the email settings, what password are they looking for? My yahoo email password or the Reolink app password?

To enable email notification, the user's email credentials need to be entered into the app:

• The URL of the vendor email server. I use GMail, so it is smtp(dot)gmail(dot)com (sorry, we cannot include URLs in forum responses)
• The SMTP port (Gmail says to use 465)
• A "Friendly Name" for the sender (to appear on the email message)
• The email address that the message will come from.
• The password to that email address. (Google requires an "application password")
• The email address that the message will be sent to.

Yahoo should have information on how to send messages through Yahoo.

The Reolink user ID/password are not part of sending email notifications.
