Did anyone else here start getting text message spam after using teleflip? I saw it on an episode of Hak.5, decided to try a test message to myself, and not a week later, got my first instance of text message spam.

I know I haven’t used my cel ph # on the internet anywhere else, and I only used it that one time. It happened again a month later. I had this account for what, a year prior with no problems? Seems like they might be doing something shady, that’s all.

Still, I dig your bugmenot plugin, keep up the good work!

Eric, it works with Gmail but, in addition to “Blat”, you need “Stunnel”, which requires a SSL library. IMNSHO and much as I hate toolbars, the “WataCrackaz” extension makes more sense…for anyone in their right mind, I mean.

If you didn’t have to download and install three other packages to get this to work with Gmail, it be a pretty decent extension. If you had the option of a toolbar icon, it’d be a good extension and, if it had a directory, it’d be a great extension. “Three stars”. 8-þ

Greetings:

I too could use a link to some instruction(s).

I had reinstalled my OS (WinXP-SP1), reinstalled Firefox 1.5.0.2 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2 – Build ID: 2006030804) then reinstalled Teleflip 0.3 … and it does not appear to be an option, either that or I am not using it properly (and yes, I entered the proper mail server information in “Options”).

I did go to the Teleflip site, and using Thunderbird, was able to send several text messages that were received … so the Teleflip site appears to be working.

A link to any directions would be welcomed … “Directions For Dummies” format especially welcomed!

Thank you again for your efforts,

Lawrence

You know, not to be touting proprietary software, but AOL’s AIM product has had this capability for years.
And, no, I don’t mean via the lousy AIM Mobile service.

Send an IM to the target phonenumber, prepended with a plus sign.

I.E.; Open a new im window. Type “+18005551212″ as the recepient and then type away. (Obviously replacing 1-800-555-1212 with a real number, no dashes)

And to initiate from the cell phone end, just send a text message to number 265010 with the first word in the message being the targeted username followed by a colon.

I.E.; Send text to 265010(as phone number)
Msg: “RecipientSN: Hi” (where recepient is the person you are trying to reach on AIM)

After a few exchanges too, AIM’s service will notify the phone that it’s granted the person you’re talking to’s screenname a set number, like 265XXX so you won’t need to start each text with “Screenname:”.

Easy Peasy.
