The maximum email buffer size is 48K bytes
. If a message is larger than that, the
modem deletes it from the server to avoid the infinite loop that would result from trying to
retrieve a message that is too large. It then displays the following message on the
Logger port:

9 Communicating with the modem
9.1 Sending email to the modem
Email messages may be sent to the modem from any of the configured networks. Satellite
networks have mechanisms to pass messages to the modem without being polled, but to receive
unsolicited messages over GSM/GPRS requires that the user application have some sort of
polling mechanism.
The modem can detect some special emails to download new foundation software or reboot (see
Chapter 10 Over the Air (OTA) software update). The user application has access to
configuration parameters for SMTP and POP addresses, usernames and passwords. The
Internet Service Provider (ISP) should provide information on setting up accounts for SMTP and
POP, similar to personal email.
9.1.1 ORBCOMM
To send an email to a modem using the Orbcomm network, address the email to
[e-mail], where ModemN is the serial number of the modem shown on the
modem’s white label, and [e-mail] is the format of an Orbcomm email using
Gateway 1, within the western hemisphere. For emails using Gateway 120 or within the eastern
hemisphere, the address would be built using [e-mail].
