    I searched the forum and couldnt find a similar topic.
    PLEASE leave some feedback, maybe u can help upgrade it?
    Anyway, here goes.....

    -------------------------------------------

    You can send an sms message to a mobile phone via email.
    Just follow the below guidelines and experiment!

    [use your number in international format without + sign or 0]
    i.e.
    +44 is UK, so use - 447yournumber

    Compose a new email and use these details.....
    to: 447xxxxxx@mobile.celloneusa.com
    subject: sms
    message body: your message
    Code (markup):
    You can also code this into an html or php page (as basic or advanced as you want).
    It is a great way to attract visitors!

    Note :..
    To send to another country, the email will need to be changed.

    I wont post the source code etc,
    as it will take ALOT of space and looks ugly lol.

    You can see the above form in action here...
    www.nowares.com/sendsms.php

    Here is the source code...
    www.nowares.com/sendsmscode.txt

    And a worldwide list of carriers...

    Please note some of the carriers are dead!

    The uk one worked fine for 6 months then just died :(
    All the scripts I have seen for this (seen alot!) either didnt work, cost $ per message, or worked for Asia only :(


    Also the page I listed was an example... It wont send any as the carrier is dead
    Just hopes it helps someone

    Thanks for the carriers - I had a list a long time ago and was trying to get another one together about six months ago.

    Doesn't seem to work for me? I've tried both your script and emailing, I was using the UK carrier.

    It'd be great to find a reliable service with no disadvantages. Imagine all sorts of updates and PMs by SMS all day long. Watch out you don't agree to receive any advertising by text just by using these services.
