Hello,

I have been looking for a way to get email notifications, but up until now I had no luck. I spent days trying to figure it out and I think there is a lot of people in my shoes. So, for good karma I want to show people what I did that works

Step one: Sign up for free email at gmx.com

Step two: go to email options in mt4 options tab- email tab

SMPT server= mail.gmx.com
SMPT login= your gmx email you just set up
SMPT password= your password you just set up for gmx email
From: your gmx email you just set up
To: your email that allows email to cell phone configurations. SMS or if you know your phone email like mine is 1503#######@tmomail.net this is for t mobile.

Step three: To my knowledge gmx email does not offer email to text message on cell phones. So you need msn, yahoo, gmail etc....

Step four: Go to your hotmail msn yahoo gmail etc... email

Step five: You need to go to whatever section in this email and make sure if you get a message from your gmx email then it will send you a text message a Walla! I have msn hotmail so this is what I did. Go to Options then to more options. The options is on the right side of the email page.
Then go to mobile alerts for new messages under customize your mail. Then choose Messages I specify using mobile alert filters. Then, new mobile alert filter and enter the information. YOUR DONE!!!!!!

Why forward?

Why not directly send the mail to where you want it to? (The entry i have marked in red makes no sense and only complicates it. You are sending the Mail back to the same account where it originated from, this makes no sense. Put here the address where the mail is supposed to be sent to, no need for a forward in gmx)

The 4 green entries above mean: log in to gmx (just like if it where an ordinary gmx user) and write an email, the red entry says where it should be sent to.

SMPT login= your gmx email you just set up
SMPT password= your password you just set up for gmx email

To: your mobile phone email address (msn, whatever)

I have been using gmx for a long while now and I just send it directly to my phone. usually it is something like [email protected]. (EXAMPLE ONLY)

You can ask your phone company what the email address of your phone is. Also I believe there is a thread here on FF that lists the most common setups.

Thank you! That is even better! I changed it. If there is even an easier way feel free to let us know.

Hi to all and thanks for the great info. i will be using the gmx account strictly for the alerts from mt4 platform not any mail accounts, ie; hotmail or any other. so when setting up the gmx account do i enter gmx.com in the set up wizard as the provider or do i still have to use a other mail account?

Just fill in the form fields as described above. It cant become any simpler.

E-Mail sending explained:

When you want to send a letter you need

* a return address (you)
* the recipient's address
* a post office
* a postage stamp, valid at the above mentioned post office
* the postbox of your post office to throw in your letter

When you send an E-mail you need:

* a return address (you) (From:) *see below
* the recipient's address (To:)
* a post office (any E-Mail provider you sign up with)
* a postage stamp from your post office (login and password)
* the postbox of above mentioned post office where you can throw in your outgoing mails (SMTP server)

(the From-Address will be assigned to you by the post office, once you signed up there. Sometimes you can fill in anything here but most providers will refuse to transport mails that don't have a return address assigned by themselves)
