From this version it's possible to send Activation Messages or Installation Messages also via e-mail as well as via Text Messages (SMS). This option is especially useful if customer's device cannot receive texts for any reason. So SMTP Gateway is intended as an alternate way of communication with PrivateGSM.

So far PrivateServer supports two kinds of SMTP configuration:

  1. generic unauthenticated SMTP
  2. GMail account's SMTP

In order to enable such feature in PrivateServer you need either to subscribe to GMail or get your SMTP credentials to be used as set up.

You can reach the SMTP Gateway configuration page by clicking on Message Gateway under the Provisioning menu.

HTTP/S URL: the web service URLEach SMS gateway has its own HTTP API, which are different and its way to authenticate the user. Typical settings are:

  • Credentials: username/password or secret key
  • Originator: depending on SMS gateway it could be a phone number or a text, shown as the SMS sender
