[android-developers] Re: Send an SMS message to an email?
Right, this is why I figured it should be so easy! On any regular cell phone that I'm aware of, you can send text messages to an email address... and that's exactly what I'm trying to do here. In fact, the company I work for, most of our communication between customers and our server happens in this way. Customers send a text-message to an email address of ours using their cell phones, and that will update something on our end on their behalf. Then, we send them a message back from our email to their phonenumber@carrier. This method has worked for us for the last 6 years, and has many benefits for us. We're developing an app that will basically make this communication easier for the user... but apparently it can't be done short of re- writing an entire SMS/Email messaging back-end? That doesn't seem worth it at all. If we wanted to interact with our customer in another way, it's sort of a hassle. We can do this through the web, but it would be visiting an ugly website like www.ourwebsite.com/admin/androidapp.php?usrnum=phonenumbercommand ... Which is fine, but we don't want the website to be visible when this happens, and I can't seem to find a way to call the web-browser in the background, then have it die nicely once the site is loaded. Do you guys have any suggestions? Is this possible, or are we stuck having to re-write parts of our website back-end along with parts of our security procedures to accommodate a different method of communication ?

By the way, i checked in the logs and SmsMessenger is giving me Invalid Destination Address I think that's funny because like I said earlier this is entirely possible to do, yet Android cannot do it?

I'm trying to build for version 1.6, was this something added in later versions? AFAIK, those types of features are implemented within the carrier's network, and are independent of the particular phone make / model and its firmware. Heck, you don't even need a phone for this to work - just get a contract, activate it, set up the service, and never insert the SIM it into the phone, and it should still work. I'm using a service like this for incoming faxes with a CDMA operator: faxes sent to that phone number are received by the operator's back-end and are delivered to me over email, and the phone with that number is a spare I never even turn on. Now, if you need this for one particular phone # (or just a few), then sure, you can build an application that listens for incoming SMS messages, and then does whatever it wants with them - including forwarding them over email.

[android-developers] Re: Send an SMS message to an email?
A) If you have a website, then you can use the HTTP Client to do the interaction with your server and post all the messages you like (This is the easy way a.k.a WebService) B) If you need to only send the email to one single address, then just send it over SMTP directly to that server. An SMTP server will accept email where it is the final destination. (But you have to note, that some ISPs block the 25th port on all SMTP hosts except their local relay.)
