I can send e-mail to my UK mobile in the compose screen using 4407974******@sms and everthing works great. Each e-mail received as sms within 30 sec.

However when I try fowarding an email to sms "define rules" (important only) i get a credit deduducted but doesnt arrive at phone.

formats tried in "Forward To" "always" "sms summary"

4407974******
447974******

what about your country code +44 or what ever in the front of the number

projem · 16 Apr 2005, 11:19 AM

Hi Terry, yes that is my country code 44 as above, thanks

if header :contains "from" "@labox.com" {
notify :method "sms"

ptions ["address@where.to.send"]
:message "$from$ / $subject$ / $text[50]$";
keep;
}

Try that but change the address bit

Hi Terry thanks for reply. This looks complicated, where do I place it. Thanks for any help. Does it need the emoticon. Cheers

keep;
}

Hi Terry getting a few errors. I am changing '@labox.com' with the incoming email i want to forward to mobile. Where do I put the mobile number 4407974******.

I assume in here somewhere "address@where.to.send"

"sms" ptions (should this be "sms" options)

do i keep these '' thingies round address/number.

1 answer, 50 questions. Thanks. I will understand if you suggest support route. Thanks

On the off chance you're on Orange, emails received in your blablabla@orange.net account can have free sms notifications setup.

projem · 28 Apr 2005, 08:24 AM

Hi thanks for replies.

Yep i am currently using this free text notification with orange and its the main reason i stick with them. The main problem is its sloooow. From form submission (email) to "bleep bleep" can be upto an hour. MF to bleep bleep 30 sec always. Orange will only send "Subject" (first 160 chr would be nice) then you need to send/receive (50/50 connection rate) in order to see if its urgent or not. I joined MF thinking forwarding e-mail to text was feasable in the UK.

Any thoughts greatly appreciated

I think you will only get the first few character's not the whole e-mail, but I'm not 100% sure as some countries are different.
