Setting up Email to SMS

Hi, 

 

I am trying to send email to sms as discussed in the following thread. 

 

https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Discussions/can-I-send-email-to-sms-public-mobile-use...

 

I am using the following email address; [10digitnumber]@msg.telus.com

 

But for some reason no sms is delivered. Does anyone know of any other configuration that I need to do to get this working? 

 

Thank you 🙂

I just tried it with my number and it worked.

 

I sent it from my gmail account. You're not including the brackets, right?

 

Just send to 5551234567@msg.telus.com

 

edit: Glad you got it to work!

@Cheetah24, you can delete your own posts if you like.  I suggest keeping the posts and you point out something that others may benefit from.  I tried it using gmail and the text is not being received.

 

Edit:  I just tried with a different email service and it worked as well.  Interestingly, I received the gmail sent text at the same time.  Seems like the gmail message was clogged in the system and needed something else to push it through.

Sorry about this, but it seems to work. The problem was that, I believe the email address that I was using had spam filters on its server side and somehow does not send sms to phones; however trying with a different email address from a different domain worked. 🙂
