    Nah, for some of us, it’s a talent and a calling.

    Look:

    I know, I’m an artist. It’s OK to be in awe.

    They’re comforted by the knowledge that at least they’re not the guy who installs indicators on BMWs.

      Deeply incorrect as most carriers have the SMS/MMS gateways disabled by default. Eg, you have to enable that function on Verizon. Also you’d see an email as the sending party, not a phone number/shortcode

        I mean I use the system literally daily but okay I don’t know if we’re an approved sender or what or how that works. I just know it gets sent out in an email.

          You can use something and still fundamentally not understand it…

          Here’s an example of a message that’s send the way you describe. Note the fully shown email address in the from field at the top.

          And here’s a real 2fa short code message. This was not send via email, this was a registered shortcode number that would be registered with your telephone provider.

          Notice that the real 2fa message doesn’t show a full email address as the sender?

          If your company is relying on the sms/mms mail gateways, then you are not going to be able to reach most of your clients. Here’s the top 5 carriers in the USA.

          Verizon (146 Million users) was opt-in for me (I had to turn it on in order to get my cloudflare alerts to work, can’t rely on email when I’m specifically monitoring the email server). For those who have Verizon, text “status” to 4040 to see if your gateway is active! (https://www.verizon.com/about/account-security/email-to-text-faqs). Though it is entirely possible that it’s no longer opt-in or has changed defaults over time… possible even repeatedly, my account is very old…

          T-mobile’s (131 million users) gateway is opt-out last I checked. Meaning that a lot of people will find it once after getting some spam and turn it off.

          ATT (118 million users) turned theirs off outright… https://www.att.com/support/article/wireless/KM1061254/

          Boost (7 million) mobile relies on AT&T… See above.

          US Cellular (4.4 million) - looks like it’s working.

          These are the five biggest carriers in the USA, with 3 of them default to “no”… If you’re trusting this function to work for your users, then you’re in the wrong from an IT perspective.

          Another reason you know that most companies do not use this mechanism for 2fa… 2fa pins expire. Can’t send 2fa pins that take “A couple of hours” to arrive when that pin expires in 10-15 minutes for most services.

          Most sms texts come from registered services like twilio (https://www.twilio.com/en-us/messaging/channels/sms/short-codes), ez texting, salesmsg, textmagic, simple texting, slicktext, textla, etc… For the ones I’ve interacted with, you use their APIs to send messages, and the messages always come from a shortcode or normal phone number, never from an email address. I’ve never… ever ever… received an MFA pin from an email address. Always short codes or full phone numbers.
