Re: Sending SMS

Isn't an SMS an email to a cell phone?

If a cell phone has an sms package - then lets say you are with telus and
your phone number is 888-777-6666
then your email would go to 8887776666@xxxxxx or something like that

Or am i misunderstanding 'SMS'

Re: Sending SMS

Yes, something like this.
But the problem is I do not know the carrier, I only know the telephone
number.
Any suggestion.

Thanks, Kartic

You'll need some way of sending the actual SMS, there are
lots of third parties out there that will do this for a
small cost per SMS. Either by using their webservice or
sending an e-mail containing the SMS details.
