Is there anyway of sending text messages from OS X & iOS programmatically? A google search has indicated no without setting up your own SMS server. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with us. TIA
Hello, I the event that you have the ability to send emails programmatically, then you can text messages through that channel in many cases.... Most carriers allow this action.The typical pattern is phonenum...@carrier.com, mine for example is in the form:
3101234...@cingularme.comRemember to just use the subject line, no message body and no reply- to as the starting point for the new message, as the character count piles up quickly.
The challenging part is finding out the right carrier domain to use, so this methodology all but requires manual setup. Major carriers like tmobile have a name-sake texting domain, but others like mine (net-10) differ according to region/city.
I forget where I found mine, but I found it by googling 'email to sms' or the like.
This site may get you started: <http://www.emailtextmessages.com/>I've used this methodology both for a friend to text me from his computer, and also having gmail auto forward emails from specific senders.
