i am in germany and use app_sms to send sms messgaes to mobile phones. app_sms does not talk directly to mobile phones but to the sms message center that in turn sends the sms to the mobile. sending sms works very well to all mobile networks (i use it for notification of voicemail new messages). receiving incoming sms is a bit more tricky as you have to send a sms message from your mobile to a non mobile number and some providers will use text to speech to read the contents of the message if they detect a fixed line number as destination number. therefore receiving sms works only if the sender uses t-online or a fixed line phone via deutsche telekom. hope that helps stefan _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
