Part 1: SMS to E-mail using SMTP
This solution consists of two parts. The first part is the SMS to E-mail forwarding. If you look at Figure 1, you will see the route of the message. The blue arrow shows you how the SMS comes in from the mobile network, and how it is sent e-mail client (such as Outlook) through an E-mail server using the SMTP protocol.
If you only want to create SMS to E-mail forwarding, and you are not interested in the other direction (E-mail to SMS), you can continue by reading the following guide. If you want to do both directions, skip this guide, and jump to Part 2.

Part 2: E-mail to SMS using POP3 or IMAP
The second part is the E-mail to SMS forwarding. In this part Ozeki 10 downloads the E-mail messages (to be forwarded as SMS) from the E-mail server using the POP3 or IMAP protocol. When the e-mail is downloaded it is forwarded to the mobile network as SMS. Take a look at Figure 2, and see the green arrow, that shows how the message is handled.
