Ok, I've got the newest version (2010) and having some configuration issues since the documentation doesn't match this version. We are putting together a contest system where sometimes people will submit by email, sometimes by sms. We need NowSMS to process the inbound messages and preferably pass them along to an smtp server where our system will process them and enter them into the database (system already exists and is working with email/smtp). POP3 is also an option for this. Additionally, we need to be able to send sms to these same numbers hopefully using the existing smtp system to send the message to NowSMS. We can tell the system to send NowSMS the outbound message by using the protocol 1234567890@sms.ourdomain.com, except it adds the outbound address into the message. We want just the message content. Instead of emailing do we actually log into the smtp server of NowSMS? What configuration steps do we need to make to achieve this? Thanks | |||

Hi Daryl, It is possible to modify the template that is used for SMTP to e-mail translation. Here is a description of how to modify the template:
Basically, you either want: SMSEMailTemplate=@@Subject@@ @@Text@@ or: SMSEMailTemplate=@@Text@@ -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Ok, I think I have the idea here, but I don't find this file anywhere. Or anything similar. mmsctype.ini is the closed I find. | |||

In newer versions of Windows, configuration files are stored separately from program files. Look for the ProgramData\NowSMS directory, and you should find MMSC.INI there. | |||
