Enabling email notifications in Boring Toolbox v4

In Boring Toolbox v4 you can enable email notifications directly from the client as opposed to the config file.  

• There are two ways to get to the settings dialog
  • From the initial logon screen
    • On the bottom left side of the screen click on the block gear  
  • From the pinned Global Dashboard tab
    • In the upper right side of the dashboard click 
• This will open the settings dialog
• To enable email notifications click the toggle next to Email Notifications
  • by default the from email address will be alerts+email_address_of_licensee
  • by default the to email will be the email of the licensee
    • Change the to and from as you see fit.
    • Add multiple TO emails addresses by separating them with a comma

When you enable email notifications Boring Toolbox will send emails through Boring SMTP servers so there is no further configuration necessary.  However, if you want to use your own SMTP servers you can do so by clicking the toggle next to SMTP Settings and changing it to CUSTOM.  Once custom is selected you have the options to use your own SMTP settings.  You can see some sample values for Google GSuite here.

Once done, click Send Test Email to test your configuration.
