    has anyone succesfully set this up, I am having a hard time congiguring my email address. It keeps failing when i try and verify my settings. I am using an AOL account and the outgoing server is smtp.aol.com using 587 as the port, this is correct isnt it?

    I'm having the same problem with my AIM account. smtp.aim.com port 587. Those settings, which I successfully use with my Windows Mail program don't seem to work for the webcam motion detection...
