Email to SMS
Email to SMS allows you to send and receive SMS messages directly from your email client.
What is Email to SMS?
Whitelist email addresses or domains
For added security, you will need to specify which email addresses are authorised to send SMS messages via email to SMS. This means that only whitelisted email addresses can send Email to SMS via inMobile.
The company domain can be authenticated if you want all employees to be authenticated.
Define your sender name
You can choose the sender name of the SMS message. Write your company name so that it's the first thing the mobile user sees when they receive the text message.
If you use a text sender instead of a phone number, the mobile user will not be able to reply to the SMS message. If you need 2-way communication where the mobile user is able to reply to your SMS message, use a virtual phone number instead.
Try inMobile free for 14 days
You get free SMS messages to test with and access to all inMobile features.
Receive replies to your text messages
If you want to receive replies to your SMS messages, you can easily purchase a virtual phone number. The recipient simply replies to the SMS message and the reply will then be sent to your email.
Remove email signature and HTML elements
An email signature often contains information that is not relevant in an SMS message. This could be the company's logo, address, etc. By entering a specific text in the Email to SMS setup, all or part of the signature can be removed automatically.

Payment reminders on SMS
The mobile phone is the user's most personal object. A delinquent payer will feel that you are getting very close and will be more inclined to pay their outstanding balance.

Hi Lars.
You have an outstanding balance of DKK 645.45, which we ask you to pay within 8 days. If we do not receive the payment, the case will be transferred to debt collection and thus incur additional costs.
Regards. Waterworks
