We use SNDSMTPEMM to send out emails and texts from our customers to ourselves.

When we send to our normal email address, works great (presuming the appropriate set up)

When we send it to Verizon text handling (2225556123@xxxxxxxxx for example) Verizon is supposed to forward that message to the phone number listed as a text message. From my email it works great. From IBM i the texts do not come through. Adding “1” to the front of the email does not seem to help.

Thoughts?
