Tracfone is not a supported carrier for use in Rave. Tracfone uses other underlying carriers which can be different depending on your location. Since our system cannot tell who the underlying carrier is, we don’t know where to send the message. If you use a Tracfone and can identify your underlying carrier, locate the SMTP address for your phone at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_gateways#Email_to_SMS_.2F_Web_to_SMS. Then use the SMTP address for your phone as your Preferred Email Address in Rave. This will send the alerts as an email to your mobile phone.
