For years and years I've been using emails sent to [email protected] to 
send network alerts to my cellphone.  Recently it seems that has started 
randomly rate limiting me, thereby delaying alerts for several hours.  Smtp 
delivery to vtext.com is just deferred with a random error message.  I was 
wondering how others are getting notifications to their mobile device.  I could 
use 10DLC via my voip carrier, but that comes with its own whole set of 
regulations and possible fines when used for A2P.  Verizon has an 'enterprise 
messaging'

  that says it is a direct replacement for vtext, but there is no pricing, so 
I'm guessing it's expensive.

I like the email gateway since I send each alert from a unique email address 
for that device, so on my phone in my messaging app, they are all nicely 
threaded by device.  Makes it really easy to track UPS statuses as a storm 
rolls through and power is flashing.  Is there a similar application that would 
provide real-time alerting without breaking the bank?
