NovaTec
Mobile Gateway S20
Explanation
The telnet session is opened and connects to the server at
192.168.127.56
using port
25
. The
HELO
SOFT8
lets the server know who is contacting it.
The
MAIL FROM: [email protected]
is the sender information the server requires. The
RCPT TO:
is the recipient of the email,
in this case a mobile number. The
DATA
is the actual payload that is sent via SMS to the recipient.
After signaling the end of the
DATA
section, the quit ends the telnet session. If the server is correctly
set up, then the recipient will receive an SMS. Also, dependant on the settings under
Email settings
,
the sender
) may receive confirmation of the sending of the SMS.
Considerations
Due to the many various mail server setups and servers that are available (MS Exchange, Linux/Unix
MailTo, Lotus Notes etc) this is just a brief and general overview on how to integrate the NovaTec SMS
<-> Email application into an existing environment.
Within the company network, a unambiguous domain name should be given to identify the NMG
system within the network, in the above example it is
nmg.novatec.de
.
This domain name should be mapped to the IP address that has been setup. The „main“ mail server
should be setup to forward any mails with the domain postfix
nmg
to the NovaTec system. This allows
the use of the SMS<->Email application without any changes to the mail clients within the company.
