I would like to have my name written instead of a phonenumber when i send an sms. So that when they look in their inbox there is my name on the message, and not the number on my sms gateway. I tried the Sender parameter, but it didnt seem to work. Am i missing something? My querystring looks like this: GET /?PhoneNumber=$number&Text=$message&charset=iso-8859-1&Sender=myName HTTP/1.1\r\n | |||

The "Sender" paramter will only work if: 1.) You are using an SMSC connection that allows the sender address to be specified. Most SMS service providers allow this, but it is NOT possible when sending on a GSM modem. 2.) Assuming that the SMS service provider supports the ability to override your sender address, their SMSC definition in NowSMS needs to be setup with "Allow Sender Address Override" checked. | |||
