[hobbit] SMS format and DSN: Data format error

[Lowery, Michael]

Thanks for the tip, Henrik.  The problem was that my hobbit server does
not have any valid DNS entries.  Once I masqueraded the envelope and
relayed through a server with a good PTR record, it worked great!

Thanks again.

Michael

Can you send e-mail directly to your cell-phone mail address and have it
work ? E.g. 
  echo "test message" | mail 5555551234 at message.cellular.com

Because this looks more like a mail configuration problem than a problem
with the Hobbit notification message.
