What address to use to email/SMS alarms from a SmartStruxure Server, Xenta controller, or Vista to a cell phone
Product Line

- Xenta 511, 527, 701, 711, 721, 731, 913
- Vista Server
- Automation Server

Cause
Vista and SmartStruxure are only capable of sending out SMTP email alarms; however, it can accomplish a "paging" or SMS functionality by sending emails to mobile providers' default email addresses.
Resolution
For the following services use:
T-Mobile | 0123456789@tmomail.net |
Virgin Mobile | 0123456789@vmobl.com |

AT&T | 0123456789@txt.att.net |
0123456789 = the 10 digit cell phone number
When setting up the "From" email address in the Server Setup, it needs to have an @xyz.com for example, at the end of the from address to allow the text message to go through.
Note that these addresses could change and you should consult your service provider for details.
