While devising my masterplan for the OOO part of the year, I decided maybe auto-response asking important queries to be directed to a single email address (like some.ooo.prefix@domain…) that allowed breakthrough to SMS forward would be the ultimate in not having to open my inbox at all over the holidays.
But it looks like email-to-SMS gateways are just not a thing that Australian carriers do anymore. I thought maybe my Fastmail plan might have some functionality for it on their side? Nope. Maybe I can just email to my iMessage address? Nope.
Surely there is an option for this that is not “pay some unrecognisable middleman company to provide completely un-auth-ed forwarding”?
@chrisjrn the thought of paying by message to something publicly accessible is a bit scary - the two halves of the equation, email and SMS, are products I pay high but fixed rates for having unlimited amounts of - but it does look possible.
I’ll have a read what their protections are for people just spamming you to cost you money. Thanks!
