Hello,<br>
<br>
I would like to send sms to some external phone numbers from my asterisk server. Is it possible to send sms via softphones like X-Lite ? . Any tips regarding this will be helpful<br>
<br>
thanks<br>

This is easy to do by using email to SMS gateways. A list of them is on wikipedia (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways" target="_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways</a>). For the Asterisk side, you have an extension that sends the email. I personally use an AGI script for this part, but you could use a System() call as well.<br>
