Problem with Cingular TAP Gateway

[Stover, Beth]

Thanks Scot,

My ability to send via SMTP is not impaired.  I use the TAP gateway for
sending alerts (from modem to cell) in case my Internet connection or
E-mail server go down.

I see from reading about TAP that there are two modes:  Automatic and
Manual login.  The TAP server can be configured for either.  If it's
configured for manual mode, then the user will be prompted with "ID="
which is what I'm seeing.

Looks like they changed something on the server.

Beth

A few years ago I had been using qpage and an 800# to send messages to
my AT&T cell phone (eg, actual paging, not email).  The line quit
working about 2 years ago.  I suspect someone at AT&T started paying
attention to those 800# bills.  I've been just emailing my phone since
then.  AT&T wireless is now Cingular in case you missed it.

You might try just emailing to cellnumber at mymmode.com to see if that
works. Or try some of the paging numbers linked under "resources" on the
bottom of this page:
