[link to this post]
 
If anyone has experience of re-directing mobile phone text messages to a web server (or email server) running on the end of an ADSL connection, then I would be interested to hear from you.

How much - depends on volume.

Have you used them?

and if so, Why did you choose them?

It is not clear from their website that I can get incoming SMS messages directed to my servers.

I do use them yes, over 20,000 messages a month.

I picked them as the global coverage they offered.
(I needed to send SMSes to certain networks in certain countires)

They are not the cheapest but, I never buy cheapest on anything.

http://www.esendex.co.uk/Services/SMS-API - Should explain more.

For outbound, bulksms seems to be a fair bit cheaper, if you're doing the numbers.

Kapow are also there but quite expensive.

Many thanks for your response.

At this time my primary requirement is for inbound messages - must be able to be directed to a server on my local network.
