The majority of cell phones does not receive e-mails directly. What
happens is that the service provider and/or network operator provides
functionality to receive e-mails, parse the e-mail address and pass the
message as a SMS text message to the cell phone matching that e-mail
address.
Cell phones hooked up to different service providers will have
different e-mail adresses (@mobilmail.com, @djuice.com etc). If this is
for comercial applications you should talk to different network
operators in your region for SMSC (SMS Central) API access.
Please not that these terms are from an european point of view.
