SMS_RECEIVED definitely should be in the SDK, it is a frequently used
intent. An example of it's use can be found here:

Double-check your spelling, I think you have an "i" and an "e" the
wrong way round.
As for emails, I'm not aware of any public intents in the GMail or
Email apps, and I'm not sure which one you intend to interface with.
How about using some simple IMAP client code to check an email account
periodically? Something like this:
