Variable emailing

RadiKaal

I would like to be able to send an sms. Now the sending of the sms is not the problem, but I would like to be able to let the smsphone be picked by input. Let's say that a customer can enter his mobilenumber. This number will be safed as email. So I can read this back to him with %email% etc. That part works. Now I though I read that I could use the %email% also in my emailaddress. But somehow it doesn't seem to pick it up.

So I try to send an email to %email%@txtlocal.co.uk

1. Did I misunderstand the quote that this was possible?

2. Is it possible? (One way or another.)

Many thnxs for an answer.

Quote "You can send emails to multiple addresses by listing them separated with commas. Additionally variables, normally retuned by a plugin, can also be used (eg. %emailaddress%)."

If txtlocal.co.uk provides a service where you can send txt messages to mobile numbers by simply entering sending an email to mobilenumber@txtlocal.co.uk... then you should be able to send the txt message to a number stored by IVMs variable.

Make sure you are executing the email plug-in correctly. So that the 'send to' argument is equal to %email%. I don't think the send to email in the built-in voice mail settings will allow you to send to an address using variables, but I am unsure about that (not tested).

Great. I hadn't seen that there was a email plug-in. I will try it that way. (It is tested now and it clearly didn't work with the build-in voice mail. ,-))

Many thnxs for the response.
