Email your phone with Cingular

I have cingular cell phone service and use a popular server/network monitoring software called nagios.

I’ve dug up (by no help from cingular) that you can email your phone a message by prepending your phone number to @mobile.mycingular.com. The problem is large messages (at least on my phone) will get split into multiple emails to the phone.

Now I’ve just realized that writing mail to (# prepended) @cingularme.com appears to not break apart the message. Also, don’t sue me on this but I think you won’t be charged for text messages if you use this host.
