astSMS is a small Asterisk module module to send SMS messages to your SprintPCS phone from the Asterisk Dialplan.

astSMS project can also send messages to any email address.

YOU MUST HAVE THE PHP4 COMMAND LINE INTERPRETER FOR THIS VERSION OF THE MODULE TO WORK! php4-cli is the name of the debian package perhaps?

To compile this program simply type "make".

After it compiles copy the module to your asterisk module directory whereever it is.

Then copy the included .php and .inc files to /usr/bin.

WARNING: These paths must be used because they are hardcoded in the program. Next realease will fix this.

And last you need to restart asterisk.

Usage:

This Dialplan apps are to be used in extensions.conf. DUH!

toNum = The destination 10 digit SprintPCS Phone Number
fromNum = Who is the sender? 10 digit Number
message = This is the message, pleast abstain yourself from using special characters in the message body like ! and |

exten => _777,1,SendSMS(toNum,fromNum,message)

toEML = Destination mailbox
subEML = Subject of the email
message = This is the message, pleast abstain yourself from using special characters in the message body like ! and |
fromEML = Sender's Email address

exten => _888,1,SendEML(toEML,subEML,message,fromEML)

In both of these examples I have used arbitrary extension and priority number. The user can set this to whatever the needs are.
