Hi

Instead of paying roaming voda rates of 80c per sms, I've worked out when i'm in oz I can email which is less than 10kb (so 10c) per message.

Does anyone know of a service that will email 2 sms.

The other thing I'm looking for but not sure if it exists is if I can set a reply to (my cell number) so ppl can just reply to that sms instead of having to compose a new sms message, just like a email reply-to really.

Free is always good too.

Cheers

Clickatell let you customise your from settings on some accounts.

Don't expect to get a free service that's reliable however. Somebody has to pay the $$ somewhere along the line.

clickatell looks the best but you need to buy a min of 400 credits so $37. too much for me to only use when roaming.
