Hi All,

Our experience with using the e-mail-to-SMS gateways provided by
AT&T/Cingular and T-Mobile:

AT&T: Messages come through with very little delay (even during alert
storms).

        As long as you're sourced from ARIN IP space.  If sourced from
for exmaple, APNIC space, you may have mixed results or lack of service.
This has been my experience, even when there is proper rDNS, SPF, and other
such methods being used.  This means you need to relay via an alias elsewhere.
