Not sure what you're alerting for so maybe it doesn't matter but I just wanted to warn you about using sms mail gateways. Most of the time the email gateways work (with varying delays) but I've seen every major provider fail or take days to deliver when I needed it the most.

I know. We use Twilio for the 'important' alerts and the gateways for 'nice to have'.

But, as you said, it can be iffy, so that is why I want to know if the issue is with stuff I control, or them.

So, at least I know it is being sent and my logic is solid.

That’s a smart way to do it.
