This may occur if the device is outside of the service area, powered off, or due to other factors that prevent immediate delivery by the carrier. Additionally, it could indicate that the phone number provided is incorrect. It is recommended to verify the number with the user to ensure accuracy. ***Duplicate Phone Number*** - This phone number has already received a text message regarding this same alert. ***Unreachable:*** The phone number is currently unavailable, likely due to being switched off, out of service area, or having no network connection; essentially, the phone cannot be reached by the network to receive the message.  ***Unsubscribed*** - The recipient has chosen to opt out of receiving text messages from the short code 38276.   **SMTP Definitions:** ***Sent** -*The SMTP message has been successfully dispatched to the recipient's cell provider, utilizing the carrier information provided in their profile. ***Phone is a pager*** - The profile phone is a pager ***Phone has no provider*** - The message was not delivered because the user profile did not have a provider listed for the phone number. It is important to note that SMTP messages require a designated provider for successful delivery. ***SMTP unsupported by provider*** - The carrier is unable to facilitate SMTP delivery to the device. ***Phone does not have a US country code*** - SMTP delivery is limited to the United States, and therefore, cannot be facilitated for phone numbers associated with other countries.   **Microsoft Teams Definitions:** ***Success*** - The message has been sent to Microsoft Teams.  There is no delivery confirmation status. ***Failed*** - The message could not be sent to Microsoft Teams.  This is due to technical complications following multiple attempts to send. ***Not Installed*** - The user does not have the Konexus integration installed in Microsoft Teams. ***Public Users Not Supported*** -
