Explanation:
Configure a mobile account (SharePoint Foundation 2010) This article discusses how to configure
and manage a mobile account for Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 to enable users to
subscribe to alerts that are sent by using Short Message Service (SMS). The alerts are sent to users’
mobile phones when changes are made to a SharePoint list or item. The mobile alert feature
resembles a feature that already exists in SharePoint Foundation 2010 that enables outgoing email
alerts. However, instead of receiving alerts via email when changes are made in a SharePoint list or
item, users receive the alerts on their mobile phones. For more information about email alerts, see
Configure outgoing email (SharePoint Foundation 2010). A SharePoint site is usually located on an
intranet. As a result, access to the SharePoint site can be difficult when users are away from the
office — for example, when they are traveling or attending a business dinner. The mobile alert
feature enables users to react quickly when they receive an SMS alert that an item in a SharePoint
list has changed. Configure a mobile account You can configure a mobile account for a server farm or
