Re: IDS Alert -> Mobile Phone Text Message

You could check out www.genie.co.uk. They allow you send an email to somebody@sms.genie.co.uk and have it land on their phone. Most of the time it's okay, but it can be slow slow slow sometimes. As in: a day late (did I mention that they use Informix :-) If you need the message straight away - use a pager. >>> Mr Creosote <glynboNOglSPAM@lineone.net.invalid> 07/06/00 01:05pm >>> I am aware that there are systems out there that have been set up such that when an event is detected by the ALARMPROGRAM it pages an administator. I am UK-based and would like a similar mechanism but have the ALARMPROGRAM send a Text Message to a mobile 'phone (porbably via email?) - any ideas anyone ? I have no problems generating email messages from our Informix server. I am aware that www.breathe.com (amongst others I am sure) offers this free service but it currently needs manually entered text - i.e. cannot be driven by an email.
