Re: Text messaging from web url



Yes, I'd be interested, provided that the service isn't going to be yet
another fly-by-night, here today, gone tomorrow, web service, such as most
of the SMS services I'd tried using over the last few years... (IOBOX,
BoltBlue, TextForce, etc...)

In fact, I'd be *very* interested in a reliable, pay-as-you-go email or web
to SMS service. I'd also like to be able to configure it with cost
thresholds though, - one of the services cost me a few quid a while back
when a scripting error (my fault!) resulted in SMS messeages being sent to
me continuously for several days while I was away...   :-(
