You can post messages to %%site.name%% using a many kinds of cell
|
||
|
|
phones that support SMS messaging. This site does not support SMS
|
||
|
|
directly; rather, it uses your carrier's email gateway to send and
|
||
|
|
receive messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Managing your SMS settings
|
||
|
|
--------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use the [SMS settings](%%action.smssettings%%) page to set your SMS
|
||
|
|
preferences. You can add or change your SMS number and set the
|
||
|
|
flags for SMS updates.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you add or change your phone number, you'll receive a message on your
|
||
|
|
phone with a verification code. Enter it into the SMS settings page to
|
||
|
|
confirm that the owner of the phone authorizes sending it messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that only the carriers listed in the drop down list on the form
|
||
|
|
are supported by %%site.name%%. They're the only ones we know how to
|
||
|
|
make email addresses for.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Receiving messages
|
||
|
|
------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once you've verified your phone number, you can enable sending
|
||
|
|
messages to your phone. If you have a lot of friends and a typical
|
||
|
|
phone, it can be hard to keep up.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sending messages
|
||
|
|
----------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To send a message, you must send an email to the incoming email
|
||
|
|
address visible on your SMS settings page. The method for sending
|
||
|
|
email from your phone varies from carrier to carrier and from handset
|
||
|
|
to handet; if in doubt, ask your carrier.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Keep your incoming email address a secret -- it's the only way we know
|
||
|
|
you're really you!
