The GSM spec dosn't support Email only SMPP (Short message point to =
point protocol). It will in te future but I suppose that's no help to =
you now.

Check with your GSM service provider to see if they have a gateway you =
can use.
(Will prob charge you for each message drop though) and you will find =
that most gateways only support Email to SMS and not the other way =
around. The problem is that of specifying the Email address since the =
phone is geared up to accept a mobile number and message centre number.

I ended up building my own to get around the problem. It's not that hard =
and the great thing is if other people use it it dosn't cost me =
anything, not like if it was the other way round.=20
You just need an GSM phone with a data port, it's data cable and a crap =
PC running a lump of VB code.

Elector mag recently did a similar device using an AMTEL chip I think.

If you want more details about how to do it drop me a line.

Joe.

Is anyone working with the WMOi3 GSM Modem module? Is so, is there a way =
to
send the short message to an email address as opposed to another SMS
capable device?

Thanks,
Howard
