Title: Alerts sent as text messages

Message:
  How do I get your alerts on my cell phone as a text message?

Response:
To get our email alert as a text message on your cell phone all you need to do is modify your email address in our database.

Go here to modify your email address:    http://www.markettrak.com/modprof.html

Change it to one of these depending on your cell service:

T-Mobile: phonenumber@tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile: phonenumber@vmobl.com
ATT: phonenumber@txt.att.net
Sprint: phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
Verizon: phonenumber@vtext.com
Nextel: phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com
Boost: phonenumber@myboostmobile.com
Alltel: phonenumber@message.alltel.com
Qwest: phonenumber@qwestmp.com

Make sure that the phone number entered has 10 digits (includes area code).
For example: 5051234567@vtext.com. Do not use spaces or hyphens.

You might want to test this by sending yourself a text message from email. I've tested it for Verizon but none of the others. If you find an error, please send us an email.
