Send Email to SMS
Email to SMS is a feature that allows users to send SMS to mobile phone number via email.
When users would like to send a SMS, they just need to send an email to the Yeastar S-Series VoIP PBX email address, with the destination mobile phone number as the email subject. The system will then receive the email and forward the email to the GSM/3G/4G port, so that the email can be sent out through SMS to expected destinations.

Install GSM/3G/4G module and SIM card on the PBX.

Check the trunk status and make sure that the GSM/3G/4G trunk is ready.
