Marshall -

Thanks for all the details. Per our other conversations, I'm pretty sure this is an issue with the caller ID security feature you have installed but I want to isolate this. Since we've tested your particular phone a lot and haven't had issues with auto-replys, we will have someone install that feature on one of our test phones to try to isolate the behavior to one of the apps.

I can't remember if I've asked you this before but have you tried auto-replys to emails just to make sure whether they work or not for you as well?

Thanks again,
Mike

Tried several "dual reboots... No luck in responder...
Cant enable the email option, I get 500 or so emails daily and dont need or want any of them auto responded (that wouldnt be good for me, could be considered a security violation!)
And remember the *82 is set @ verizons service (if I didnt use *82 my # would always show as private to ppl I call [using or not using *82 allows me privacy when desired], but when txt'g the *82 cant be used) & I do have two entries for almost everyone, one with *82 (primary moble for unblocking calls) and one without *82 (secondary mobile to send text msgs to cause the *82 on the primary mobile # will not deliver txt msgs through verizon service)
Is it getting confusing yet? LOL

"Clear as day!" as they say. My working hypothesis is that the challenge is that ZoomSafer formats our auto-replies independently of the BlackBerry SMS app, then uses a BlackBerry API to send them. In your case, maybe the SMS app looks at what we've created and says "they're not using the right format given Marshall's security profile so I'm not going to send this message."

Would it be possible for you to disable your security service for a few minutes to test out for a few minutes without it?

That will require a call to verizon to change my service profile

I called verizon, and had them remove the *82 feature... Then ran several tests and it still didnt function as it should. Then I power cycled the phone twice and re-tested with the feature still disabled... Still no response to text msgs was received by the sender.

FYI: The *82 feature has been restored to my phone after those tests failed.

Thanks for doing all that, Marshall. Let me get with my dev team with all the data and get back to you. The only other variable that I can see given your app list is the Visual Voice Mail - I'm going to have someone on the team load that up too. We'll keep you posted.

Well... I did manage to get a email test off while zoomsafer was set to reply to them... And that did work... So i dont know what the problem is... I just dont see how it can be the *82 feature, since the calls or msgs dont come inbound with *82 on them, and zoomsafer replys to the number that it rcvd it on... I mean, it works on inbound calls... so...... IDK!

Please make a refund... the product has never worked as expected.
I have provided detailed information with regards to the issue and have had no communication since... I no longer have time to waste or wait on a resolution.
