E-mail To SMS

When you send an e-mail to your SMS address ([email protected]) the iPhone displays the sender as 1(010)100-118 (with each message given a new number one greater than the last). This makes managing a lot of SMS message coming in from e-mail very inconvenient. I receive a lot of SMS notifications from various network monitors (among other things) and just getting a meaningless "phone number" for each one means that I have to go look at each message to see which system is paging me. Since some systems don't need immediate attention, it would be nice to know where each message was coming from. My old Treo (from Verizon) would show the e-mail address of the sender, which made this easy. I could glance at my phone to see if I needed to look at the details of the message or if it could wait until later.
Is there any way to change this behavior? I would even consider installing a replacement SMS application (since I can stand the goofy cartoon bubbles anyway).

That was my first thought, but isn't a viable option since the iPhone can only check for new e-mails at most every 15 minutes.
I agree... it's sort of a poor-man's push. I set my personal email to forward to the SMS address, and I have the "fetch" scheduled to "manual," so my mail gets pushed to the SMS address, and if I want to read the actual email I can then check the actual account. It's far more instant, and it uses less battery than running the fetch every 15 minutes.

    I just bought an iPhone5
    To ensure my old iPhon4 was backed up i...
         1. Deleted the iPhone4 backup from iTunes prefs(devices)
         2. I then sycnched the iPhone4 to get a new backup of the old Phone.
    I then installed my new iPhone5 from the fresh backup of the old iPhone4
    This way i got my new iPhone5 exactly as my old iPhone4
    Screens all looked the same, EVERYTHING the same.
    Some minor adjustments were needed afterwards.
    Hope this helps.

  • Messages folder only shows e-mails not SMS messages.

    Hi I have just changed from a pearl to a Curve 8900 and I am having a little trouble in getting the same functuionality.
    My messages folder only shows the e-mails I have sent and received and not the SMS or MMS messages that I have sent and received.  This means that when I receive a SMS/MMS I have to go into the main Blackberry screen and scroll to the 'SMS And MMS' icon but I feel that I should be able to access sent/received SMS messages from the 'Messages' icon on the home screen.  I can create SMS messages from the 'Messages' icon but they don't stay there after they have been sent.
    I may have explained this rather poorly but any help would be aprreciated.  The only thing I have done to try a fix this is pull the battery but to no avail.
    Thanks
    Solved!

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    On the Blackberry go to the main message queue, menu, options, general options.
    Scroll to SMS and Email in boxes, select combined. Now SMS will show up in the main queue
    (You described it just fine!)

  • In-App Mail (and SMS)-iPhone OS 3.1.3

    I originally had the following code:
    NSURL *emailURL = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:emailAddress];
    if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:emailURL])
    with the NSString emailAddress set up properly.
    What would happen then?
    I discovered the MessageUI framework today; I didn't even know it existed before. I realize that I need it to send messages...I'm looking at the MailComposer sample code. I'm just curious as to what the above code would trigger? I'm not yet in the paid program, so I can't test on device...anyone care to tell me?
    Will there be an similar interface for in-app SMS in OS 4.0, or will it handle URL strings automatically, like with phone calls (I think)? If it's under NDA, then feel free to tell me—I'll just remain ignorant until I get into the program or it's released to the public.
    Thanks!

    On success, if 'emailAddress' were @"mailto://[email protected]", your app would exit, and the Mail app would launch, then immediately transition to its New Message screen with the "To:" field set to "[email protected]" (See [Mail Links|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/featuredarticles/iPhoneURLSchem eReference/Articles/MailLinks.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40007892-SW1] in the +Apple URL Scheme Reference+, and [Launching native apps with openURL|http://appsamuck.com/day3.html]).

  • Landscape view/keyboard for Mail and SMS...

    Does anybody know if there is anything in the works to give us larger handed iPhone 3G users the ability to turn the phone sideways for a landscape view and slightly larger keyboard when typing in SMS or Mail like we have in landscape view when typing in Safari?

    Thanks for the links. This was the main (read: only) reason for me not getting the iPhone.
    I love just about everything about it and I have everything mac at home and a mobileme account so the iPhone would complement my needs very well, or so I thought till I used a friend's iPhone for a couple of days.
    Typing emails and using SMS with the keyboard in portrait mode was painful. My fingers aren't that large but found myself spending more time correcting than actually typing. In safari I loved the landscape orientation for typing. I think this is a major oversight by apple.
    I waited till this past week to see if apple releases an update to address this (what with all the feedback people are leaving on boards and forums about this problem), but nothing showed up so I bit the bullet and got myself a Blackberry Bold.
    This was a deal breaker for me. Maybe when they address it I might try out an iPhone in the future.

  • Multiple Mail and SMS Notifications Even After Reading

    Is it normal to get repeat notifications of Email messages and SMS messages?
    The "repeat alert" setting under Settings>Messages is set to off, but I nevertheless receive two distinch audible or vibratory alerts (per message) whenever I get an email or SMS.
    The second message occurs *even after I read the email or sms*.
    Thanks for any ideas.
    iPhone 4/OS 4.02

    switche of stamnia did not help, but i think i found the troublemaker:
    i disabeld every app to get the notifications (security->notifications) and then it worked everytime - then i activated all the apps that i need (there where two left overs - apps that i allowed to fetch notifications that i don´t use anymore....) and it still works.
    the two apps are:
    -floating notifications
    -Garmin connect
    i don´t like to test the both if one is the bad boy and the other one not...but now it seems to work!

  • Slow MAIL Syndrome (SMS)

    A while ago, I had trouble with my MAIL showing the spinning wheel and slowing down not only MAIL but the rest of the computer as well. For no particular reason, while the wheel was/is spinning, messages show up in the tool bar such as "adding 1 of 1 email address's to Address Book" even though these were not in relation to any 'new'address's: "deleting messages" even when I had not given any instructions to delete anything: "updating color for msg 2 of 2": etc.
    Some time ago Sherry Johnson gave me a fix which involved backing up my MAIL program onto the desktop, then Trashing Com.Apple.mail.plist. This seems to have worked for quite awhile but I have recently had to do the same thing and who knows how long this 'fix' will last. I have talked to a friend with an eMac and he indicates he is having a similar problem. Can anyone shed light on just WHY this problem occurs and any other ideas other than Sherry's (which was an excellent one by the way-thanks again Sherry). Thanks for any input on this.
    Cheers.
    PS: I believe my friends eMac is one OS above(newer) my 10.2.8

  • Problem opening mail and SMS in E71

    I’ve just recently installed Mail for exchange. It worked great for a day or two.Now I can’t open any messages. My mails and SMSs arrive, I see the subject, put I can’t open them. It is possible for me to delete messages. I can even reply to emails. If choose reply everything works as it should (I can see the received message and are able to write a reply and send the message).So the only way for me right now to read a received mail is to start at reply of it – very irritating.I went to the store where I bought my phone. They first tried to restart (removing the battery) and start again – didn’t work. Next they suggested to update the software, went home and did that – didn’t work.I have tried to reinstall Exchange, but the problem is still there even after that exchange is deleted from my phone.Does somebody have a solution for me? I read one solution to a similar problem here with the subject “E71 email issues”. There a solution was to install new software (Emoze or Profimail). I did not understand that and I don’t understand why there is a need to install new software.  Do you really need to install new software to be able to read your mails?Thanks a lot for any help.

    I have the very same problem. Reinstalled the firmware (v300) it did not hepl.

  • Suppression Tout - Mail SMS Musique

    Bonsoir,
    Juste pour signaler que c est un vrai fiasco pour supprimer la musique sur iphone "glisser/supprimer" un simple bouton en haut "Tout Supprimer" serait le bien venu , car cela fonctionne une fois sur dix la plupart du temps ca lance la musique
    de plus pareil pour mail et sms un bouton "Tout Supprimer " serait le bienvenue que de sélectionner un par un ,l app orange sur AppStore le fait !!! De plus vous n etes pas pour le jailbreak mais au moins via cette méthode on ajoute ces fonctions a se poser la question que peut être tout compte fait vous cautionnez cette méthode ?

  • Cannot Open Links from Mail / SMS

    I upgraded my C7 to Belle now. Bad news: When I receive a mail or SMS that contains a link to a web page, I cannot open it. What happens is:
    I first get a notification sying 'Loading'. Then, one or two seconds later, it says 'Loading failed. Please try again later'
    I am not 100% sure if this started with Belle. I installed quite a few application after I upgraded to Belle, so maybe it's one of those that causes the problem.
    What I did, of course, was to check
    Application Settings > Default Applications > Browsing internet
    That's set to 'Internet', which I believe is what it should be. (I also tried to reset everything there, still nothing.)
    I really, really, really wouldn't want to wipe the whole phone, re-install belle, re-install all of the applications...
    Is there a way to check what really gows wrong and fix it?

    Can you connect to internet from native browser or other 3rd party browsers like opera?

  • How to get email and sms alerts in 9i

    Hi,
    I want to know that is there any method in 9i by which we may get mail and sms alerts whenever anything goes wrong with the database?
    Thanx

    Why pay for something if you already have it, included in your license?
    Only because you have to read documentation to use it?
    Oracle will sooner or later include functionality in their monitoring products, they don't include in the RDBMS. In 10g you already rather use the controls than call the PL/SQL Apis directly.
    Apart from that: the third party products you seem to promote, usually implement very limited functionality.
