    Does having my ip camera send out an email for alerts “ expose” it to internet to be hacked?

    I am concerned about that. I think my easiest and better option is to connect cameras to blue iris and then use blue iris to handle the email sending and time synchronization settings.

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports occasional crashes.

    So it crashed again and I noticed it was something to do with the alert I set up. I think I set it up wrong. I do get the test email confirmation but when a plate I put in goes by it crashes the downloader. Anyone know how to set up alerts correctly?
