SMS by Email (UK)
Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2011 11:19 am
I've got an account with intelliSMS, where I can send text messages using their API, but I've recently come across this idea of using the PHP mail function to send to a carrier's SMS e-mail address. Apparently this works/worked in the US, where there's a publicly available e-mail address for each carrier, and provided you know the carrier of the recipient, you can just enter their mobile number before the '@', and it's free.
Eg, 07775775775@txt.o2.co.uk
Obviously this address is wrong, but in theory you could use that as the recipient with the mail() function.
Does anybody know if this is available in the UK, and if so, what the e-mail addresses for the carriers are?
Cheers
