Another option would be getting a cheap OpenWRT device, and writing something small to copy the sims.
If you're in Perth, I've got some stock of cheap OpenWRT devices which can read SMS's, then just pipe them into whatever you need with a small script. OpenWRT can handle MMS with libmms, just a matter of working out where you want it to dump the files (could use an AWS S3 bucket or similar). I also know Arduino also has similar capability, there's a thread on the forums about sending and receiving MMS.

SMS content is stored in the message body with MMS content being saved as an attachment. App can be configured to run on a schedule and/or on message arrival depending on your tolerance for latency. -Adrian On Thu, 16 Jul 2020 at 16:53, Joseph Goldman <mailto:[email protected]> wrote: 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).

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.
