Hi all,
Does anyone know if there's a way to specify/alter the equivalent of
email-headers on SMS messages sent from an email address?
We send SMS messages to users through the library website, but the messages come from a
bogus email address. We'd like it to come from a real email address so they can text us
back if necessary. I tried changing the "From:" headers on the email, but that
didn't work. Is there an SMS equivalent of an email header that we can modify?
A little bit of searching around makes me think that UDH (User Data Headers)
might be involved, but I can't make heads or tails of what I'm seeing when I
look that up.
Alternately: does anyone have a handy PHP/SMS library that handles all of this
behind the scenes and requires me not to know much?
Thanks! Looking forward to seeing some of you in South Bend this weekend =)

When I get SMS messages that originate from e-mail they usually come
from my TelCo's SMS gateway so I will hazard that it may not matter what
you do with your From headers... or certainly I feel you will have to
deal with the various TelCo companies many different rules etc., to get
it to work.
See you in South Bend. :-)
