A few weeks ago I was asked to help set up a system where an email would be texted to someone so long as a certain keyword was used in the subject line.
My solution should work under any Unix/Linux system, assuming you have 02sms installed and have an alias set up in in your .o2smsrc for texting SMSs to yourself; my alias is named ‘me’. This also assumes that you have procmail set up and requires the following snippet to be pasted into your .procmailrc and edited as required.
The snippet is set so an email is only forwarded by SMS if it is sent by one of two approved email addresses and the subject line contains the phrase ‘txtken’ with no leading or trailing spaces.
:0 * 1^0 ^From:.*xxx@xxxxx.xx * 1^0 ^From:.*yyyyy@yyyy.yy * ^Subject: txtken$ | formail -k -X From: | o2sms me > /dev/null
I have created a small java program you can use to send texts via Meteor website without having to log in each time. It also has a phonebook function and there is no limit on the characters you may send (it breaks them up into separate messages. Tested on Mac OS X, Solaris & Windows (linux not tested but hopefully should work!). You can download it at:

NOTE: You need a valid Meteor.ie login to use this.
Good stuff!
Can anyone recommend me?
I need an free sms service for my homepage.
I am seeking one with the option to change the design(for a bit).
Thanks a million!
