I don't know about other carriers (I'm on Verizon), but I just have a regular phone (not a blackberry), and if I send an SMS to an email address, it actually gets there. My idea was to have an address set up, and then run fetchmail on a cron job every 5 minutes or so to check for new mail. I'd have to limit it to manual schedule just to keep the message syntax simple.<br><br>Thanks for the tips though.<br><br>Chris<br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><br><div style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><font size="2" face="Tahoma"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Brian Wood <beww@beww.org><br><b><span style="font-weight:
