Basic EmailSMS is a simple EmailSMS gateway allowing
users to send SMS messages using any email application.
There is no need to install software on your computer.
Note: As Basic EmailSMS requires no software plug-in to be integrated with an
email client this offering has a limited feature set.

All users provisioned in service
management can send emails to
[Mobile Number]@redcoal.net which are then forward as SMS to
the mobile number.
SMS replies are sent back via email. Messages can be sent to individual users
or multiple users at a time.
Basic EmailSMS can be customised to allow for all users from a certain domain
name to send SMS without being individually provisioned.

When forwarding an email to the
mobile phone sender email addresses are often not provisioned for EmailSMS.
In this case the email needs to be addressed as follows:
[Mobile Number].[Optus EmailSMS Password]@redcoal.net
for example 042777111.xyz123@redcoal.net
The password has been sent to the account administrator upon provisioning of
Optus EmailSMS
