Appendix 3: Sending Notifications to a Mobile Device Using SDStatus
Using the email sending ability of SDStatus, you can configure email alerts to most mobile
devices that have wireless service provided by wireless carriers such as Verizon ® , AT&T ® ,
Sprint ® , and T-Mobile ® (among many others).
Most mobile devices can receive text messages (officially called SMS messages) from an
external email address. Common settings for four of the largest carriers in North America
include the following:
Common SMS Email Addresses for Example Number (513) 555-1234
Wireless Carrier Example SMS Email Address
Verizon ® [email protected]
AT&T ® [email protected]
Sprint ® [email protected]
T-Mobile ® [email protected]
These examples are for illustration only. SMS email addresses are subject to change. Visit the
carrier’s website or call the carrier to verify SMS email settings.
DISCLAIMER
SDStatus’s email sending capability can be used to send messages to any valid email address.
In order for messages to a phone to work correctly, multiple conditions must be met, including:
• Email server configuration must be correct.
• The wireless carrier must support sending of SMS messages or emails to a mobile
device.
• The mobile device must be able to receive SMS messages or emails.
• The mobile device receiving the message must have wireless service and must be
receiving an active wireless signal from the carrier. (If the device is out of range of the
carrier’s signal, the message will probably not be received.)
If SDStatus Service sends an email to a mobile device, charges may be assessed. Please contact
the wireless carrier to verify any charges before setting up emails to a mobile device.
SSi will try to assist with SMS email setup for SDStatus wherever possible. However, SSi is not
responsible for email server configuration, SMS charges, and SMS functionality of a phone or
wireless service.
