Hi,
I'm trying to get the email portion of YAWCAM to work and having some issues.
1 - can the "TO" email and "FROM" email be the same?
2 - does gmail still work with YAWCAM?
3 - do you have to use the email/password option?
4 - if gmail does not work, are there any alternatives?
5 - will AVAST or another antivirus interfere with the email working?
Thanks in advance!

Re: Email Issues
1. no
"To" means you send from your address
"From" is the address of the recipient or the place you send it to
2. I don't know this because many times I get the error that gmail cannot be sent
3. Yes
16-character password created by google
4. You need to create an apppassword and use it as your password instead of your regular passwordeggy car
5. I think not

Re: Email Issues
This is unknown to me because I frequently encounter the message "Gmail cannot be sent."

1/ No, the "TO" email and "FROM" email address cannot be the same. This is because YAWCAM sends the email using the SMTP protocol, which requires that the "FROM" email address be a valid email address.
2/Yes, Gmail still works with YAWCAM. However, you may need to adjust the SMTP settings in YAWCAM to use the correct port and security settings for Gmail.
3/Yes, you must use the email/password option if you want to send emails using YAWCAM. This is because YAWCAM needs to authenticate with the SMTP server in order to send emails on your behalf.
4/Yes, there are a number of alternative SMTP servers that you can use with YAWCAM. Some popular options include Yahoo! Mail, Outlook.com, and SendGrid.
5/It is possible that your antivirus software may interfere with YAWCAM's email functionality. This is because antivirus software often blocks outgoing traffic from suspicious applications. If you are having trouble sending emails with YAWCAM, you may need to try disabling your antivirus software temporarily to see if that resolves the issue.
