[asterisk-users] SMS and fixed land lines

Hi!

A SMS is not really a call (at least not in the mobile world), and the 
cellphone cannot directly send a SMS to a landline phone. Instead it 
hands the SMS to the SMSC of the mobile carrier, which in turn hands it 
over to the SMSC of the landline carrier.
