If you would like to be notified of a system event by a SMS messsage, i.e., a text message, or otherwise have a need to send information from a computer to a phone by a text message, you can use a text to email capability provided by some phone service providers. To send a text message via email to a Verizon user, you can use the Verizon phone number for the person followed by @vtext.com - don't put any dots nor dashes in the phone number, just the digits of the phone number. E.g., if the person's phone number is 555-765-4321, you would send the message to
5557654321@vtext.com. If the person uses
Sprint for phone and text messaging service, you would append
@messaging.sprintpcs.com to the 10-digit phone number, i.e.,
5557654321@messaging.sprintpcs.com. If the
user has AT&T for his/her
phone service, you can text the user by appending @txt.att.net to the number,
e.g. 5557654321@txt.att.net. For
T-Mobile,
you can append @tmomail.net to the phone number.
