The most important thing the end user should know is how to address a mail message in order to
deliver it as a SMS message. The procedure is slightly different for mail delivered to the server
via the Domino router versus mail delivered via the Domino SMTP listener task .
Addressing format when using the Lotus Notes® client, Traveler®, iNotes®, ...
Lotus Notes® uses the @ character to specify the Domino domain name. The administrator is
free to choose the name of the foreign domain that corresponds to Sms4Domino. Let's
assume the foreign domain is called Sms. The mail recipient should be addressed as
name@number@foreigndomainname (e.g. John Doe@0474965588@sms)
number@foreigndomainname (e.g. 0474965588@sms)
The first part ( name ) is only used as information to the creator of the mail. It is not used at all
by Sms4Domino.
The second part ( number ) is the phone number of the recipient. The number is cleaned,
transformed and filtered by Sms4Domino. What remains should be a valid number that is
accepted by the GSM network. The pre-processing on GSM numbers is explained in a
separate document.
The third and last part ( foreigndomainname ) is the name of the foreign domain, linked to the
Sms4Domino configuration database, that was specified by the Domino administrator.
Example: John Doe@[phone]@Sms
Addressing format when sending mail via some SMTP client
Mail addressing should follow the Internet standard RFC 822. The @ character is used to
separate the local part from the Internet domain name. Only one @ character is allowed in
the address. Domino uses the % character to insert the Domino domain name into the local
part of the address.
Suppose an application uses SMTP to generate mail messages via Lotus Domino®. The
Domino SMTP listener accepts mail for the Internet domain name mycompany.com. When
the application needs to send a SMS to 32474856978 the recipient's address will be
[e-mail]
The sending server should be allowed to relay to the Sms4Domino foreign domain via the
receiving server.
