I have this model of camera that is using firmware General_IPC-HX5(4)XXX_Eng_P_Stream3_V2.420.0000.0.R.20140419.bin, but it support only protocol Tls 1.0 and this protocol is deprecated and my provider don't allow me to send camera emails.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Thanks in advance.
 
That V2.420 build (2014-04-19) on the HFW4305D only speaks TLS 1.0 for SMTP, and there is no later official firmware for this model that adds TLS 1.2. Flashing a newer package meant for a different Dahua family will not fix it and can brick the cam.

Most providers reject TLS 1.0 now, so camera-direct email is a dead end on this unit. The reliable workaround is a local SMTP relay on your LAN that still accepts TLS 1.0 (or plain SMTP) from the camera and re-sends outbound with TLS 1.2 to the provider. If you already run Blue Iris or an NVR, even simpler is to turn email off on the camera and let BI/the NVR send the alerts instead.
