If it can send an email, it can ring your phone
Email2Phone takes a plain email and turns it into a phone call that reads the message aloud. That means it already works with your monitoring tool, your NAS, your alarm panel and your mailbox rules — no plugin, no API, no webhook, in any country. The full guide to how we turn a critical email into a phone call covers filters, retries and escalation.
The setup is the same everywhere: add yourname@email2phone.net as a notification
recipient, narrow it with a filter so only real problems get through, and pick which phones
ring. The guides below cover the exact menu path for each tool. Email2Phone calls phones in
any country, so the same setup works wherever your team is.
