Seems like folks on the other thread (email notify) are figuring that Dahua just isn't going to get to the problem very soon, and are switching to Yahoo accounts. Happily, I was able to do this too. So, for now, I'm up and running.

I was able to get it working with two different Yahoo accounts. Be sure to change Yahoo Security settings to allow less secure apps. See the thread referenced above (email notify) for the experiences of others who were able to get yahoo to work for them. Good luck!

Little errors are easy (for me) when changing to a new email account. My first one was not changing my email password in Dahua settings. Then I forgot to change to less secure settings in Yahoo. Check everything out, reset settings maybe and start all over again. Good luck!

It works for me with a new Yahoo account.

SMTP Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 587
Username: myemail (without @yahoo.com)
Password: my password email
Sender: myemail@yahoo.com

Authentication: TLS
Title: Dahua alert
Mail receiver: My other email

You have to change Yahoo Security settings to allow less secure apps.

Dahua have finally released a firmware update for NVR4XXX series NVR's that addresses this issue. Using the built in upgrade checker does not find this update, you have to download and install manually here: and select the file dated 02/08/2019.

I have just installed the firmware on my NVR4204 and Gmail now works again!

My settings as follows:
- Username: your gmail address
- Sender: your gmail address
- Encryption: TLS
- Port: 587
- SMTP Server: smtp.gmail.com

They (the 4xxx series) are notorious at killing USB sticks (mine has destroyed 3), so check for errors on it. Seriously, switch the nvr off before removing the usb stick is a good idea...
