Hi Stephen,
Have you looked at another side - of perhaps sitting the SIM in an
Android phone, on charge, and mounted indefinitely - with using a
web-based app like Android Messages (or other SMS apps that allow you to
login through web to get your messages etc on desktop) - then just
call-forward always on the voice side to a SIP landing number? I'm sure
you could also get an app (or have one developed cheap from india) that
can package up the SMS/MMS and email it to you also - and even back the
other way if you email it back auto sends it out.
Not sure how 'multi-user' this will be, depends on the app and if it
allows multiple sessions at once through the web, and it will possibly
incur call-forward costs on the Voice side - and you can present your
MSN as CLID on the outbound leg when required (if this is still allowed).
Thanks,
Joe

Hi John,
They are particularly keen on keeping their numbers - will the
redirect cover SMS/MMS as well, or only voice? Additionally they want
to keep receiving calls on these same numbers, so it may not work -
but nonetheless, still keen to hear your response.
As far as for received calls, they would be looking to actually
receive and talk with someone - either by redirect to another number,
or by actually receiving the call on a SIP trunk etc. Unfortunately
sounds like it may not work with you guys in this instance, but if
not, will definitely file it away for future reference :) Thanks!

Hi Stephen
We at can handle inbound and outbound MMS and SMS through virtual
MSISDN's, and will deliver the MMS payload via email, so you don’t
have to "login" to get the MMS. Many older longcodes aren't capable
of using this service so new numbers may be needed and a redirect if
you need to keep your existing numbers.
We can also terminate inbound VoIP, but we only do this with fixed
line numbers, and not the same number as the SMS and MMS. Also
interested to find out what you'd like to do with the call once
received, eg - play a message, record a response or keypad input, and
then email the response - something along those lines?
So it all seems doable, unless you need the same mobile number to do
SMS, MMS and inbound to SIP. Our solution would be inbound SMS and
MMS to one number, inbound voice to another number. Hope you find the
right solution.
Cheers

We came up with a simple solution for this however not for MMS just
the SMS side.
A Small Teltonika IOT router with a $1/m SIM card from TPG. Teltonika
has a built in SMS > Email feature. We looked at many options which
were Hundreds of dollars per year and we got away with this for
$1/Month + the initial hardware which in out case we already had.
Keen to see what you come up with that covers MMS also.

Hi Nathan,
Thanks for the reply - not sure if that was separately directed just
at Shaun for the mobile aspect, or also at my original request, but
just to clarify I’ve spoken with Maxotel, and they offer every
aspect of the above except for MMS (currently just a feature
request). Cheers!

Hi Shaun,
I believe Maxotel may also offer a Mobile product like this as well,
it may be worth reaching out to Alex and the team and checking in on
what they can offer, they’ve got a pretty solid service.

Stephen;
I currently use an AU Mobile number hosted with Twilio and route the
inbound SMS to email (via a webhook) and our inbound calls are
routing in via SIP.
Twilio's MMS in Australia is converted to an SMS by the carrier with
an embedded URL and password in the SMS. You then log into a mini
site hosted by the carrier and download the MMS attachment.
With a bit of code, the login to the site could be scraped and you
could have your SMS to Email and Sip calls.
If your interested in scoping something out I can certainly assist you.
Cheers

Hi folks,
Been looking for a solution that will allow us to either
a) Pop some SIM cards in a device, or
b) Port mobile numbers over to a VoIP provider
And upon doing so, receive calls to SIP, and SMS+MMS to email. I can’t
really find any products that can do this, and Twilio has confirmed
they can’t do it (MMS specifically) - same with Maxotel. Most
providers seem to do VoIP + SMS, but not MMS. Most devices I’ve found
will either do calls but not MMS+SMS, or MMS+SMS to email but no calls.
Can anyone make some suggestions around possible products? Or am I
restricted to putting permanent redirects on the mobile numbers with
and
SMS+MMS receiving device? If so, are there any “industry standard”
ones here? Specifically it’s 3 SIM cards that we need to support.
Thanks!
