Send an Email for each Stock Alert
You can use existing plugins to Growl to send an email each time StockMarketEye notifies of a Stock Alert.
If you have not already done so, you’ll first need to install Growl.
NOTE: StockMarketEye needs to be running in order for alerts to be forwarded.
Mac OS X – Email Alerts Configuration
Open the Growl Preferences window by double clicking on the “Growl” Application. Then cick on the “Displays” tab and click on the “MailMe” Action.
Enter the email address to which you would like to forward the notifications in the “To” field. Fill in the other fields as necessary. For the “SMTP Server” settings, you should use the settings provided by your email provider.
Configure StockMarketEye in Growl to use the mail forwarding
Now click on the “Applications” tab and scroll the list of applications to find StockMarketEye and click on it.
In the Application Settings tab, under the “Application’s Display Style” section, in the “Actions” dropdown, check the MailMe action.
In the “Notifications” tab, under the “Actions” section, check the MailMe action.
Now, every time that StockMarketEye sends a stock alert, it will be forwarded to your email account. If you are not receiving the email messages, first check that the settings of the growl MailMe or MailMeToo plugin are correct. You may also want to check your spam folder in case your spam filter is overzealous.
Windows – Email Alerts Configuration
Open the Growl Settings window by clicking on the additional System Tray icons triangle, then right click on the Growl paw icon, then click on the “Open Growl” menu.
Go to the “Network” tab and check the option, “Forward notifications to other computers”. Then click on the green, plus icon at the bottom.
In the “Forward Notifications” window, click on the “Click here to forward notifications to an email account”.
Then enter a Description and Email Address to which the notifications will be forwarded. Then click on the “edit” link to enter the information about your email settings (aka. SMTP Settings).
Next, enter your email account settings, including the email server you use to send messages through. You can get this information from your email provider. If you are using GMail, you can use the settings as shown in the image below. Be sure to enter your Username and Password. When you have entered all of the information, click on the “done” link.
Finally, click on the “Save” button to enable the forwarding to email.
Now, every time that StockMarketEye sends a stock alert, it will be forwarded to your email account. If you are not receiving the email messages, first check that the settings of the email forwarding, especially the “SMTP Settings”, are correct. You may also want to check your spam folder in case your spam filter is overzealous.
