Yes but thats a service which the telecomm co. will supply..... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 February 2003 16:26 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: ColdFusion and SMS Messaging
Wow! A dead area of the US? Hmmm.... Well, by 'email gateways' means you can send an SMS through a normal email system. For example, to send an SMS to a Cingular phone you can send an email to the email address of <phone number>@mobil.mycingular.com. So, in yuor case, it sounds like all you need is the format for the email address to your users' phones, something your users could provide you with.
