It is basically easy to do when you use an email-to-sms gateway. From a quick Google search on "email sms gateway", I see: Sending an email as an SMS CarrierSMS gateway domain Sprint [insert 10-digit number]@messaging.sprintpcs.com T-Mobile [insert 10-digit number]@tmomail.net U.S. Cellular [insert 10-digit number]@email.uscc.net Verizon [insert 10-digit number]@vtext.com There are also businesses which supply this function which the above search will also bring up. We use XMITIP to send the email out via our MS Exchange/365 server. The z/OS side just specifies the appropriate local MS Exchange address (e.g. john.mckown.sms@<exchange.server>) which it converts to aaa-bbb-cccc@<one of the gateways above> > > > Regards > James > > -- "Irrigation of the land with seawater desalinated by fusion power is ancient.
