there are only few countries where you can buy a virtual number that is able to receive both SMS and voice calls. So, we ended up with a bunch of Yeastar GSM gateways with SIM cards in them. The gateways are quite stable, and the only issue is that if an SMS starts with a smiley, you get an empty message. We're receiving the SMS from those gateways via their Asterisk API, and insert them into a Redis queue. Then, there's a dispatcher that reads the queue and forwards the messages depending on the user's follow-me status: it can be sent to a Telegram messenger, or as a new SMS to the user's mobile phone. Then there's a web app where the user can see the messages and reply to them. We use http://www.inetworx.ch/ for outbound SMS. They allow setting the sender's number, and that is very handy in this scenario. We use a local copy of Notifica bot for sending messages to Telegram: https://storebot.me/bot/notifica_bot The author is going to publish it as open-source, but hasn't yet found the time for it: https://github.com/Benez/notifica_bot cheers, stanislav On Fri, Jun 17, 2016 at 9:43 PM, Kevin Long <kevin.long@haloprivacy.com> wrote:
I am curious if anyone on this list is doing SMS for their SIP end users, and if so, how.
Which SIP providers are you using, how are you receiving and sending SMS to the outside world, and what SIP or chat client software are you using to facilitate this?
Thank you,
