The smtp platform allows you to deliver notifications from Home Assistant to an e-mail recipient.</p>
<p>To enable notification by e-mail in your installation, add the following to your <code>configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<figure class='code'><figcaption><span></span></figcaption><div class="highlight"><table><tr><td class="gutter"><pre class="line-numbers"><span class='line-number'>1</span>
<span class='line-number'>2</span>
<span class='line-number'>3</span>
<span class='line-number'>4</span>
<span class='line-number'>5</span>
<span class='line-number'>6</span>
<span class='line-number'>7</span>
<span class='line-number'>8</span>
<span class='line-number'>9</span>
<span class='line-number'>10</span>
</pre></td><td class='code'><pre><code class='yaml'><span class='line'><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
</span><span class='line'><span class="l-Scalar-Plain">notify</span><span class="p-Indicator">:</span>
</span><span class='line'> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">platform</span><span class="p-Indicator">:</span> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">mail</span>

</span><span class='line'> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">username</span><span class="p-Indicator">:</span> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">YOUR_SMTP_USERNAME</span>
</span><span class='line'> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">password</span><span class="p-Indicator">:</span> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">YOUR_SMTP_PASSWORD</span>
</span><span class='line'> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">recipient</span><span class="p-Indicator">:</span> <span class="l-Scalar-Plain">YOUR_RECIPIENT</span>
</span></code></pre></td></tr></table></div></figure>
<p>This platform is fragile and not able to catch all exceptions in a smart way because of the large number of possible configuration combinations.</p>
<p>A combination that will work properly is port 587 and STARTTLS. It&rsquo;s recommanded to enable STARTTLS, if possible.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that if the password contains a colon, it needs to be wrapped in apostrophes in the <code>configuration.yaml</code> file.</p>
<p>For Google Mail (smtp.gmail.com) an additional step in the setup process is needed. Google has some extra layers of protection
which need special attention. By default, the usage by external applications, especially scripts, is limited. Visit the <a href="https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps">Less secure apps</a> page and enable it.</p>
<p>To use notifications, please see the <a href="/components/automation.html">getting started with automation page</a>.</p>
