    Trouble getting Covert Camera to send email

    I have a 2013 black ops that I bought and used last year. I set it up to send pictures to my email so I wouldn't get 100's of text a day. It worked great! However, I'm trying to get it setup this year and it won't send emails. I get text no problem, but I've tried 3 different email accounts with no luck.

    Has anyone else had this problem? Did you find a resolution?

    With ours its all about the service. Only time we had problems is if the camera did not have enough service... send fine to our gmail account, sorry not much help.

      I know it's not a service issue as I have full bars on the camera.

      I tried using the same gmail account I used last year, a different gmail account, and a yahoo account.

      Your response is helpful because now I know other gmail accounts will receive pictures. I thought gmail changes some of their setting or something.

        You may double check to See if you have it set to send to email or both?

          I've tried email only, text only, and both. The text always works, but not email.

          Anyone else?

            Gmail and yahoo require SSL to login to their mail servers. The coverts do not support SSL so you need to pick a different email provider that allows a non ssl login.

              Not sure. It worked on my Gmail last season and I actually got it working today. I got one picture sent from the Covert and I created a contact in gmail for that email address. After that I was able to capture all the pictures.

              Thanks for everyone's help!
