[outages] AT&T Email to SMS outage?

[Gabriel Grissett]

After an hour on the phone they opened a case, maybe it will do some good.

I was hoping someone had better contacts than me in the wireless division.

I guess if you want to poison DNS it appears the MTA below is working 
(or it did for me). The .7 address accepted the message, but did not 
deliver it.

Don't know if there are other MTAs in that same block or if this one is 
behind the load balancer or not. This was from an egress message that 
worked.

Good luck.
