WARNING: Turns out that my constellation messed up my Analog Input. 20% of the measured values are off.

So for example the capacitive soil sensor gives me sometimes readings which are 10% or 20% higher or lower. When i change the 7-Ohm-reed-switch combo to a normal switch. All works perfect again.

Re: How to log fridges temp remotely and send mail if alarm ?

Another solution would be using IFTTT.

Basically ESPeasy sends a HTTP request to https://ifttt.com when temp too warm.
IFTTT reads the HTTP request (Webhook) and sends a mail or calls your phone or restarts your Tesla... you get the idea :D

Maybe IFTTT even has a direct connection to thingspeak.
