Gopher Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I personally don't think this is possible, the ONLY way I can think of this being possible is if you had some form of mail server (i.e MS Exchange, Mercury Mail) running on a PC connected to that IP, obviously you need to set up at least 1 mailbox on the server and possibly a few more things depending on the software you've used. so instead of user@btinternet.com it would be user@12.34.56.78 which should in "theory" work as long as there is something there waiting for an e-mail to be recieved.

SystemQ Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I guess you are trying to remotely notify someone of an alarm event? For a solution you need to tell everyone what you are trying to achieve with some detail, there are some pretty talented people on the site and someone will have a solution. Paul. System Q Ltd.

You would need a mail server, and your MX records setting up in DNS.

I personally have a dyndns account need to set up my mercury mail server and give my theory a test.. Actually i think I need to upgrade my version of Xampp that Im running but I attempted to do it before and well erm they'd changed the format of a file and well i just couldn't get me head around it so I left it well alone...
