Automation Wizard: Email not sent when recipient is left empty

Post by floris74 »

Hi!

I was playing around with the new Automation Wizard in Domoticz 2026.4 and noticed a small problem.

When adding an Email action, the recipient field says "To (optional)" and "Leave empty to use default".

So I left it empty, assuming Domoticz would use my default email address.

But no email arrived. Instead, I got this error in the log:

Error: dzVents: Aanrecht Motion automation: No mail-to is provided

When I added my email address manually, everything worked fine.

So it looks like the wizard doesn't use the default email address as promised.

Not a big issue, but a bit confusing. Especially when you've just created a complicated automation. 😄

I'm using Domoticz 2026.4 in Docker on Ubuntu.

I've attached a screenshot of the wizard.
