Hi
I'm new to the latest Cumulus MX having used Cumulus 1 for a number of years.
Just got back into Cumulus and MX with a raspberry pi image
But I'm not getting emails for alarms or even the test email i get the following error
Test email failed: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Help Please

Daft question, but you have configured your email server settings in the Internet Settings?

Not a daft question at all
No I haven't and how would I do that on my pi ( I'm guessing its through puTTY )
Thanks

You configure via your web browser, it's the same interface you use to configure the alarms. From the menu select...
Settings | Internet Settings | Email Server Settings

Google stopped allowing you to use your main password in apps some time ago.
