copied!<p>You cannot send email as SMS messages unless you have special support either in the entity receiving the SMS or in the SMS Service Center.</p> <p>It may be that your operator/carrier have support for sending email through the SMS Service Center. Usually this is acheived by sending the SMS to a specific recipient number and coding the email address in the message body surrounded by appropriate markers (*,#,digits). I have sent SMSes to fax like this, but it was more than 10 years ago...</p> <p>If you operator/carrier has no such support maybe you can find some other SMS-to-email service that works in a similar way. </p> <p><strong>Update:</strong> Found a service: <a href="http://www.visualtron.com/sms2email.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.visualtron.com/sms2email.htm</a></p> <p>You can also create your own SMS-to-email gateway in a J2me MIDlet running on a device with an unlimited data plan. Then you need to send your SMSes to a specific port that your gateway MIDlet listens to. The actual email then has to be sent through a SMTP or HTTP connection. This is not a solution I would recommend as it is rather fragile. </p> <p>Note that JSR-120 and JSR-205 (the two wireless messageing JSRs) only specify support for SMS and MMS messages but that an implementation MAY add other messaging schemes. From my quick look at the specs I could not fins any way to determine which schemes are supported by a specific device. It should also be noted that MMS also requires a data connection, but operators/carriers often use separate connections and prices for MMS and other data. So even if your device supports an "email://" scheme, it would require a data connection to work. </p>
