[asterisk-users] Asterisk SMS: Experience with EMS?

Hello *,

I recently started playing around with the "SMS" application. Several of
my SIP clients are FritzBoxes, with SMS capable DECT phones connected
via ISDN or analog line.

So far, SMSing works great: I defined extension 0193010[01] to receive
SMSes, which works well with the default settings for German phones.
Incoming SMS in the morx queue will be parsed by a cronjob and forwarded
either to the recipient or to the local handler (e.g. SMS recipient 118
is the enquiries line, where phone book lookups can be got from; call
forwarding settings can be queried by texting to extension 999 etc).
It's marvellous.

But I would like to send EMS, especially bitmap files for the phones
here that in theory allow pictures and tones to be updated via SMS. I
found some EMS specs, but all that leaves me without too much clue.

Has anyone got SMS working to send bitmaps and tones to phones?

Thanks,
Anselm
