-- Working Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcRbFIJ8aeU
-- @description a basic SMTP email example. You must use an account which can
-- provide unencrypted authenticated access.
-- This example was tested with an AOL and Time Warner email accounts.
-- GMail does not offer unencrypted authenticated access.
-- To obtain your email's SMTP server and port simply Google it e.g. [my email domain] SMTP settings
-- For example for timewarner you'll get to this page
-- http://www.timewarnercable.com/en/support/faqs/faqs-internet/e-mailacco/incoming-outgoing-server-addresses.html

-- The email and password from the account you want to send emails from
local MY_EMAIL = "esp8266@domain.com"
local EMAIL_PASSWORD = "123456"

-- The SMTP server and port of your email provider.
-- If you don't know it google [my email provider] SMTP settings
local SMTP_SERVER = "smtp.server.com"
local SMTP_PORT = "587"

-- The account you want to send email to
local mail_to = "to_email@domain.com"

-- Your access point's SSID and password
local SSID = "ssid"
local SSID_PASSWORD = "password"

-- configure ESP as a station
wifi.setmode(wifi.STATION)
