I think all the major carriers have an email to SMS gateway. That is,
you can email an special address and it will be converted to an SMS
and delivered to mobile devices. I have a watchdog processes that
checks ping-ability to a particular address and if it fails, I send an
email to myself with: sendmail <my-10-digit-phone-number>@tmomail.net
Works at least in that direction.
As a test, I email'd my t-mobile sms gateway, received the SMS right
away, replied with my SMS messaging app, and about 10 minutes later, the
reply showed up in my email box. The delay appears to be a result of
some greylisting in the return path.
