ESP8266 Email Problems

Take a look at this project:

Irrigation relay with timer - esp8266 - WIP

Hi, I needed to control an electric valve that turns on and off my (still to be built) drip irrigation system. I have ran into a lot of limitations with the current build of Blynk for ios and arduino/esp but from what the Blynk guys said, a lot of stuff will be fixed in the new ios version (hurry up Apple). Just few things that annoyed me/couldn t get to work properly, quite possibly because of me missing stuff (any pointers welcome): -you can t seem to be able to write the state of a butt…

Looks like this is very close to what you need.

You’ll need to install SimpleTimer library. I recommend you download the latest Blynk package - it has this library included : Releases · blynkkk/blynk-library · GitHub

When you send lot’s of messages, we disconnect you. So you need to decrease the amount of messages, by sending them, for example one each second. This is what Simple Timer does for you.

I just checked the email widget on Android - everything works perfectly.
