After migrating to an ISY-994i from an ISY-99i backup, it seems the mail settings weren't retained from my backup. I'm curious to know which SMTP server the ISY-994i uses if the default settings is checked.

 

Thanks,

It is their own server, however its recommended not to use it. It can work good for long periods, then there can be delays.

 

I use Google fwiw

That's what I suspected Paul. Thanks for confirming. I set it up to use my ISP's outbound SMTP server and it appears to be working well. The biggest problem for me ironically is the long from email using the default ISY's settings as I receive ISY alerts on my Apple Watch and the long address takes up too much screen real estate. I wish we didn't need to use a from address at all...

Why don't you create a dedicated gmail account for the ISY Series Controller? This provided dedicated service and the ability to use a short name.
