Recently something seems to have changed with the @txt.att.net email to SMS gateway. Messages sent through the gateway suffer from the following: 1) Long delay in reaching the phone (intermittent) (yes I know there is no latency guarantee) and, even more crippling, 2) Message comes through as just "SMS Message" instead of the SMTP message content. And the sender is always 410-000-01x, where x increments by 1 with each new incoming email-to-SMS gateway-handled message. Phone is an iPhone 3GS. This has worked fine for quite a while. No changes on the iPhone. I have gone through normal AT&T Wireless Customer Service but there isn't much clue there - had to explain what an email to SMS gateway is. Anyone elese seeing this? Anyone from AT&T Wireless here? Please contact me off-list. TIA, Dave Pascoe
