Introduction

SMS to Email is a feature that allows users to receive SMS in their email inboxes. The SMS sent to the PBX GSM/3G ports will be received first by the system and then forwarded to the users' email inboxes.

This guide introduces how to configure SMS to Email on Yeastar S-Series VoIP PBX. 

Before You Start

Before you start to use SMS to Email, please check the following:

• Install GSM/3G module on the device.
• Insert SIM card on the GSM/3G module.
• Check the trunk status and make sure that the GSM3G trunk is ready.
• Set a system email on S-Series PBX (Settings > System > Email). The system email is used to forward the received SMS to email addresses.

Configuring SMS to Email

Please follow the steps below to set up SMS to email on S-Series PBX.

1. Go to the “Setting > System > Email”, set a system email and click “Test”.
   
   
2. If the system says “Test Successfully”, means the email address could send and receive emails on the PBX.
   
   
   
3. Go to the “Setting > PBX > Call Feature > SMS” page, choose a GSM/3G trunk, and click  .    
   
   
4. Click to  add email address for the trunk, the received SMS on this trunk will be forwarded to the email address.
5. Click “Ensure”.
6. Click “Save”.
