Finally I am releasing version 3.2 of SendSMS, with support to Orange
phones fully restored.
Thanks to Dan Kenigsberg for writing much of the new code and helping in QA,
and to Alon Altman for part of the Hebrew support. The Source is strong in
these ones :)
As usual, the release can be found in:
http://nadav.harel.org.il/software/sendsms/
If you don't get a new Orange SMS-sending "account", Sendsms now uses a
site that allows sending 2 messages per recipient number per day (a limit
shared by all SendSMS users). This is very limited, but currently your
only recourse if you do not own an Orange phone but want to send messages
to Orange phones.
If you do own an Orange phone, get a new "account" from
http://www.orange.co.il/default.asp?page=/registration/main.asp
(this is a VERY Linux-unfriendly page, so if you must, use Windows :( ).
Make sure you enter (and verify) your phone number when registering for
the new account. Make sure you can send a message from the site (so you don't
blame sendsms for an error in registration).
Then add an "account orange username password" line to your ~/.sendsmsrc.
The orange.co.il SMS sending site allows each account to send 20 messages
per day for free. Later messages on the same day cost 10 agorot per message
but sendsms makes sure that the messages it sends are free (by looking for the
"free message..." sentence on the sending page). As usual, however, this
is free software and I cannot make any guarantee that Orange doesn't slap
you with a 1000 shekel bill for your SMS-sending activity.
Enjoy :)
Nadav.
