If you use HomeSeer and have the email stuff set up, you could have an
event
for "Email reception" check for a specific keyword in the
subject, then parse
out the body of the message and pass it to the script I posted earlier.

Assuming the message criteria was:
Subject = "Send SMS"
Email body = "Number to send to#message to send"

'***********************************************
sub main()

dim index, subject, mailtext, recipient, details, message

index = hs.MailTrigger
subject = hs.MailSubject(index)

If Subject <> "Send SMS" Then Exit Sub

mailtext = hs.MailText(index)
details = split(mailtext,"#")
recipient = details(0)
message = details(1)


hs.RunEx "sms.txt","sms",recipient & ","
& message

end sub
'*******************************************

I can't actually try any of this out but it should give you something to go
on.
