header ("Location: sms_error.php");
}

else if ($carrier == "verizon") {
$formatted_number = $to."@vtext.com";
mail("$formatted_number", "SMS", "$message"); 
// Currently, the subject is set to "SMS". Feel free to change this.

header ("Location: sms_success.php");

else if ($carrier == "tmobile") {
$formatted_number = $to."@tomomail.net";
mail("$formatted_number", "SMS", "$message");
