Am I the only customer who is upset by the closing of Email & text tools at the end of this month?
Actually I only use one element of that service: The e-mail to SMS gateway with an e-mail alias.
This is very handy way to receive instant notifications from services that send e-mails but not SMS notifications. There are many of these, including some alarm companies. This has the advantage of being instant and not requiring a continuous data connection. It works equally well anywhere in the world, including on a cruise ship, and in other places where data roaming is cost-prohibitive.
I really wish that T-Mobile would continue at least this function of these tools.
