Feature request: SMTP to SMS

Open DEVisions opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

It'd be awesome if Textbee exposed a SMTP to SMS Gateway feature to act as an SMTP-to-SMS relay where a mail client sends the message as an email to the self-hosted Textbee instance, which then sends the SMS.

This sounds like a premium feature? If you are hosting the solution yourself why not just:

1: Use a tool like fetchmail or imapfilter to monitor your email inbox for new messages. 2: Extract the email message 3: Trigger an SMS sending script based on your criterias

I asked Coplot for an outline of the procedure. Hope anyone can use this receipe.

The logic is that an email with a specific code, email message and phone numbers will trigger a send script:
