How to use @tmomail.net via gmail? I am not getting Email to SMS on my phone, even though SMS to Email works
I'm trying to get SMS to Email to work so that I can get text messages for specific emails. I have successfully sent an email to myself through the SMS service and I can plainly see my +1XXXYYYZZZZ@tmomail.net address as the sender. When I reply to that email, I do not receive a text message.
Can anyone help with this?

Hola @kb6mcc email to text is a common topic among the Community. Not sure if you saw my post above about how the email to text service is supposed to work. I also provided a more detailed explanation of the filter parameters on another thread.

What kind of messages are you trying to send? Have you been able to send messages like this in the past? If so, when did your ongoing problem start?

I appreciate you sharing the full error message. The reason that the messages are not going through is because of the automated nature of the message.
Nuestra Consumer versus Non-Consumer Text Messaging T-Mobile Support page explains:
El gateway de email a mensaje de texto es un sistema legado que posiblemente sea descontinuado en el futuro. Está diseñada únicamente para tráfico de consumidor de bajo volumen y no puede manejar una gran cantidad de mensajes. Por esa razón, todos los mensajes que no sean para consumidor están prohibidos en el gateway de email a mensaje de texto, e incluso podría bloquearse la mensajería de consumidor de alto volumen ya que podría afectar la capacidad del sistema de administrar los mensajes para todos los clientes. Si necesitas enviar mensajes que no son al consumidor o gran volumen de mensajes al consumidor, usa un agregador ya que ese tipo de conexiones pueden manejar ese tipo de volumen de mensajes.
Automated messages sent from or about your home cam are non-consumer messages because they are not a person typing something and hitting send, but a bot system generating the message. You will need to find another way to get those messages like sending them to a new email address that you sign into your phone or see if the home camera has a setting for text notifications.
E-mail to text is no longer permitted to cut down on spam. Only pre-verified corporations and government organizations are permitted to send e-mail messages to SMS.

Where is above information coming from????? I have the on going problem with GM to SMS😡
It is OK if there is a policy listed somewhere for TM user to follows or understand but not like the current
hit and miss situations????
When it works, I will get any messages to my sms from the bot or human.
When it not working the way it should..than all guess if my guess too..😫
Now my sms all working as I typing..😂. Very frustrated
This article explains what is happening, and even says “The e-mail to text gateway is a legacy system that may eventually be decommissioned in the future.”
It also says “Hay una variedad de compañías respetadas independientes que ofrecen servicios de mensajería en la vía sancionada que quizás puedan ayudarte. We recommend you reach out to Kaleyra, Infobip, Sinch, Vibes Media, Twilio, or Cisco directly.”
What it doesn't say, is that as far as I can tell, each one of these services is accessed via a (programmatic) API or a web interface. There is not an email-to-text interface available.
So, if your messages are generated by your home security, or other system, then the developers of those systems need to add capabilities to utilize the “paths” that T Mobile accepts.
It will not be simple to switch.

Hey there. Email to text is specifically for low traffic, person-to-person messages. There are strict spam filters so messages coming from emails that include info, admin, alert, auto, and other words indicating automated messages will not go through. The way that it is designed to work is you can create an email using your personal email account and in the to field put in yournumber@tmomail.net. Keep the message short since the file size limit is also pretty low. When you send, you will see the message on your phone as a text message.
Hope this helps!
Do a search of the forum for many threads about this. In some cases, it still works. It just ultimately depends on what you are trying to send.

Just a simple text from the GM to my xxx@tmomail.net. It works randomly..and the TM tech support is useless even I on the phone with them over 3 hours on the issues.
When it working, I will get sms text from Yahoo mail or GM. When the problem rise, I will received nothing or receiving after x days or x hours later.
Below is the sample of the email to my phone.
