and by the way, you try to hide the mac address of your card, but its very visible...

just tested on a 3.25 board here with my msn account, and it works.

try to add this in your gateway nat:

add action=masquerade chain=srcnat comment="email test" disabled=no dst-port=25 protocol=tcp src-address="ip the routerboard that is sending mail"

I didnt use any of your scripts, I only used the email line since it is the one that fails.

I tested using this line:

/tool e-mail send to="myhotmail@hotmail.com" from="myhotmail@hotmail.com" user="myhotmail@hotmail.com" password="myhotmailpass" server=65.55.172.254 s
ubject="testing" body="testing testing" file=testfile

(the server ip there is resolved from smtp.live.com)

That worked, so then I filled out the smtp settings in /tools email menu, and only had to use

/tool e-mail send to="myhotmail@hotmail.com" subject="testing2" body="testing testing2" file=testfile

I dont know about gmail, but hotmail smtp requires smtp authentication, so user and password have to be sent, otherwise it will be ignored..

What's new in 3.21:

So now we have the availability to set username and password for an STMP server or to log into our Gmail account to send mail via our Routers? -Jordan B

I have been using backup scripts very successfully through Gmail Apps on my own domain for sometime. 3.22 worked perfect and I could almost do no wrong. Then I upgraded to 3.30. After spending a good 5 hours of time, I have come to the conclusion that 3.30 does not work for Gmail, period.

Now, 3.22 still works perfectly. But, I don't want to switch back to because of licensing issues. That 7 digit / 8 digit license problem for downgrading is dangerous. And, all current versions from 4 up have more bugs than I can deal with at this time as well.
Any ideas

Port 587, for those who can't read the video.

Twas · Fri Feb 26, 2010 4:01 am

Thanks a bunch for the help. My script works perfectly now. The problem I was having was two fold.
1. I was putting the user name, password, server ip, port, and from field in the script (don't do that on 3.30)
2. Tools > email > Don't put an email address in the From field. Just put a word with no spaces or "@" character.

Thanks to all of you for your help.

piotrjamroz · Sat Feb 27, 2010 1:33 pm

@dormador I did try EXACTLY same config (ROS 3.28) using gmail and i get in log:

"Error sending email: AUTH fail"

any idea how to solve this?

Ok, here is my full script for doing both binary (full backups) and exports. I like to do both. This also includes the scheduler. It works perfect and is plug in play less changing a few basic things.

/system script add name=ebackup source={/system backup save \
name=([/system identity get name] . "-" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6]); :delay 10; \
/tool e-mail send to="youremail@gmail.com" \
subject=([/system identity get name] . " Backup " . \
[/system clock get date]) file=([/system identity get name] . "-" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".backup"); :delay 10; \
/file rem [/file find name=([/system identity get name] . "-" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".backup")]; \
:log info ("System Binary Backup emailed at " . [/sys cl get time] . " " . [/sys cl get date])}


/system script add name=eexport source={/export file=([/system identity get name] . "--" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6]); :delay 10; \
/tool e-mail send to="youremail@gmail.com" \
subject=([/system identity get name] . " Export " . \
[/system clock get date]) file=([/system identity get name] . "--" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".rsc"); :delay 10; \
/file rem [/file find name=([/system identity get name] . "--" . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 7 11] . [:pick [/system clock get date] 0 3] . \
[:pick [/system clock get date] 4 6] . ".rsc")]; \
:log info ("System Export Backup emailed at " . [/sys cl get time] . " " . [/sys cl get date])}


/system scheduler
add name="email-backup" on-event=ebackup \
start-date=sep/12/2009 start-time=00:36:00 \
interval=1d comment="Daily Backups" disabled=no
add name="email-export" on-event=eexport \
start-date=sep/12/2009 start-time=00:38:00 \
interval=1d comment="Daily Export" disabled=no

Now, I use the free Google Apps that allows backups to our own domain email addresses, but it makes no difference.

Mods you must make:
1. Change the email address

2. Configure in Winbox Tools>email
Server: 74.125.45.109
Port: 587
From: just a single word, not email address. This is really important otherwise Auth problems.
User: youremail@gmail.com
Pass: I think you got that one.

3. Adjust the time start time on the scheduler. Don't run them at exactly the same time. Put a few minutes in between.

This backup script and scheduler works perfect on 9 AP's on three different subnets.

Hope that helps

Note: Copy the code, make the changes mentioned, and paste it into a terminal window, that's it.

check my log:

I'm sure everything is set OK - but I still get AUTH failed - anyone can help me with this?

UPDATE:
it's difficult for me to believe it, but I checked and found out that, on mipsbe architecture (ROS 3.30) sending emails to gmail DOESNT work - u get AUTH failed ERROR. However on x86 architecture ROS 3.30 device - everything works fine!!!!
Anyone can verify that????

UPDATE 2:
the above problem seems to be limited to RB411A and RB433AH (both running ROS 3.30)

I can't say thanks enough MT other than I wish the changes made were better documented pertaining to the usage of the e-mail tool.
For those of you that have taken the chance to move on to 4.6 (We have on 4% of our network) you might run across more issues trying to use scripts that include the use of the e-mail tool. I have got probably 20 combined hours over the last two years trying to make these scripts work when OS versions change. Since 3.22, I have ran into multiple problems.

One key problem was to use Winbox > Tools> e-mail. Why? Because I found in some versions you have to put info in there and others you don't. Plus, there were bugs in the field entries that made it almost impossible to use. Space, no space, @ no @, etc. I could be wrong on all of this but some of you have probably had the same problems.

Guess what, Gmail, and MT 4.6 get along once again like they did with 3.22. Here is what I just found a few minutes ago.

First set the Winbox > Tools> e-mail properties to default.
Server 0.0.0.0
All other fields blank. Yes blank.
Here is the code if you want to do it from a terminal:

/tool e-mail 
set from="" password="" server="0.0.0.0:0" username=""

Now open a terminal window wide enough to paste in this code/script. (you might have it open already)
Make sure you put your password, send to email address, from address is not important, your password, and user.

/tool e-mail 
send body="testing" from="test@testme2.com" password="yourpass" server="74.125.45.109:587" \
subject="this is it" tls="yes" to="youraccount@gmail.com" user="youraccount@gmail.com"

In my case this works perfect for my backup script. I have my own domain with the free Google Apps, and it works with that as well.

The ability to turn on or off TLS with Gmail fixed everything. Finally!!!
