Just removed GPIO and motion sensor parts, and changed out PushBullet for email

Hey all,

 

I have a PiHole DNS Blocker, and have a iOS Shortcut to turn it on and off. 

Some of my family members also have a copy of this shortcut, and have been told how to use it.

The downside is, I'm not aware that it's been turned off, and would rather it be on.

 

I need a way to know if the disable command has been run, so I can turn it back on. I've tried emails and ssmtp, but have had no luck.

The Windows PC is not on 24/7, so I'll need to know either when my PC turns back on, via mobile or by email

 

The iOS shortcut can run a script, so I can run the "pihole disable" command inside a script with the notifcation command.

 

Thanks.
