The Little Guy Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 When sending a SMS message via mail function, are their and special headers that need to be sent so it will display as a normal text?

discomatt Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Doubtful. That change is probably done at a telco level. Ideally, you want to use a paid SMS gateway Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/127907-sms-headers/#findComment-662191 Share on other sites More sharing options...

discomatt Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Convince the telcos to format your message that way? Keep in mind you're not email their cellphones... you're emailing the telco, who then converts the email to an SMS message and sends it to the phone number. The format received probably varies from provider to provider... If you want it to look a certain way, why not pay for it? For the most part, the end user has to pay when they receive a text message via e-mail... wouldn't it be better practise to take care of that cost for them?
