 ## Introduction to SZS, the SMS to Zephyr Relay

        Hi imaginary friend, how are you doing? I'm sending you a text message through Zephyr.
 
-where you replace `1234567890@servicemail.foo` with the email address of the person you wish to reach (you can look up the email address for a given cellular provider online). Additionally, if you're not sure what cellular provider your friend has, there are online services where you can look up the number and determine the carrier.

 ### Screen
 If you are going to regularly send and receive text messages using the Barnowl client for Zephyr, you will probably want a Barnowl instance running 24/7 so that whoever texts you won't encounter a `user not subscribed` error and so that your text message conversations don't disappear each time you quit Barnowl. 
 
-A good way to do this is to use screen and run it on the SIPB dialup machine, which allows you to run a Barnowl session within screen on the SIPB dialup machine that's theoretically up 24/7 (sadly outages do occur). See [UsingScreen](http://sipb-www.scripts.mit.edu/doc/wiki/UsingScreen) for more information; the basic idea is to `ssh` to `kusername@linux.mit.edu` and run `add kchen; owl-screen`, and in the future after `ssh`-ing to `kusername@linux.mit.edu` run `screen -dr`.
