btw i need it for belize to the company should support international phone numbers too
any idea guys?
Gammu-SMSD is what you need. If you know a bit of Python you can easily set up a script that parses incoming mail and insert it into the Gammu outgoing table in a SQL database. I don’t have the time to go into detail but a little researching would be best at your end. You’ll only need a 3G dongle and a SIM card. The setup would cost something but it’ll be free from there on out. Sure there might be online services that could do this a bit easier but this is just a suggestion.
