To Configure your E-Mail to Phone:

Go to http://www.gabriel-tech.com/

1. Click on "My Account"
2. Put your webSMS username and password and click "Logon".
3. In the Email-to-Phone section, fill in the information, for the "Email" option put your email address you want to use to send and receive SMS Text Messages.
4. For "Use email forwarding function" choose "YES".
5. Indicate a Trigger word that you would put in the Subject Line of the E-Mail for the system to uniquely identify you by. The trigger word will act as a safeguard against users that may try to send spoof text message via any random account.
6. Click on "Save Changes".

Once everything is setup, you can now email to mobiles in the Philippines
and Guam.

To send a message:

In the "To:" field put:

To: <number>@gabriel-tech.com

example. To: 639171234567@gabriel-tech.com

In the "Subject:" field put:

Subject: <trigger>

The trigger word you specified when you setup the email-to-phone function.

Put you message in accordingly. Reminder: text messages are limited to 130
characters. If you exceed this amount the server will cut of the excess.

When you receive a message the "From:" address will be:

From: <number>@gabriel-tech.com

example. From: 639171234567@gabriel-tech.com

And the subject will show:

example: Subject: Text Message

Do not reply direcly to the messages, replying puts some extra code in the
message and the message may not go thru.

Finally, right now our server does not support multiple recipients or
attachments. Send messages to one mobile at a time. We are working to
provide this feature in the future.

NOTE: The message will be cut to the MAXIMUM length allowed by the local carrier. [90 Chars. for Guam | 132 Chars. for Philippines]
