Sending Short Messages to GSM Users
●
The network operators normally save SMS messages for up 48 hours if the mobile phone
user cannot be reached.
5.2 Sending Short Messages to GSM Users
This section describes how to use your mail software to send SMS messages to mobile phone
users in the supported mobile network.
The procedures are described using the Netscape Messenger mail client integrated in
Netscape Communicator 4.x as an example. The procedure is identical if you want to use a dif-
ferent e-mail client.
The Internet e-mail software used must support the STMP standard e-mail protocol (for outgo-
ing e-mails) if you want to use it to send SMS messages to mobile users in the supported mo-
bile networks.
> Notes:
There is no guarantee that an SMS message will reach the recipient. The service
centers may send a positive confirmation signal, even if the recipient number does
not exist.
Reply messages from mobile phone users are not supported in this version of SMS
for GSM.
