I'm not surprised, really the outcall notification is a legacy feature from back when cell phone airtime was very limited and expensive. If I have to leave AT&T I could probably live with email notification if I can't find a phone service that can work with a pager, though that would not be as immediate or convenient as the pager setup. (My usage pattern is the phone stays turned off all the time unless I receive notification of a voice message or I need to call someone. Unlike a lot of people today I am not addicted to my phone and don't live on it.) However, using my already-activated SIM and avoiding the use of cellular internet service I may be able to stay with AT&T even though the Pinephone is not on their whitelist. Guess it depends on how deeply they check.
