If you are sending an SMS message thrugh a GSM mobile phone connected to the computer, you are charged for sending the SMS by the mobile operator at the same rate as if you had sent the message from the mobile phone keypad.

Maybe is it possible to make this program that you can send the messsages with your phone line. It is possible like EUROSMS -> http://www.rempubs.com/eurosms.html for sms and other messages (e.g ringtones). Is it possible that you can add this function to NOWSMS?

This is interesting.

I thought the phone companies had all shut down those analog dial-up lines.

We actually support the protocol that they're referring to in that link ... but we only support it over TCP/IP, not over a direct dial-up link.

When you use those links, you still have to have an account and pay the provider, right?

No! You pay ONLY for the CALL TIMES. Only That. It is very nice when it is possible for mobile phone modems!

Sorry for all the questions ... I thought these lines had all been closed down years ago.

Are they premium rate call lines?

Can you only send to subscribers of the particular operator that you are calling?

Technically it probably wouldn't be that difficult to change our UCP/EMI implementation to also work over dial-up. We'll put this on the enhancements list, but at this point, I don't think anything will happen until after the next release.

Is it not possible 2 create a new module in this program that works with this version?

Are they premium rate call lines? No (in holland not) It's the same rate if you call 2 a mobilephone. But you can deliver max 3 message's when you call the number.

Can you only send to subscribers of the particular operator that you are calling? In holland you can use it for all the networks (only for holland ofcource).

When i deliver a message i use the next numbers
KPN Telecom GSM: 0653141414
KPN Telecom semafonie Benelux: 0657506575
KPN Telecom semafonie Nederland 1: 0658506585
KPN Telecom semafonie Nederland 2: 0659506595
KPN Telecom tekst: 0665181802
Vodafone GSM: 0654545100
TextBuzzing: 0665306653

THIS IS ONLY for holland! For other country's there are other numbers. More information can you found @ http://www.diafaan.nl/support.html?p=osfaq
