It's very simple - you register withj your Telco to receive SMS messages.

When an SMS message arrives, your Telco line will ring and send a 
specific CallerID that indicates that the SMS center is calling.

You should answer the line and start the Asterisk SMS application in 
answer mode. The actuall SMS message is sent via fsk modulation.

In case of a voice line, one can only assume that if you have a DID and 
the codec is uLaw, you might get away with asking the Telco to enable 
SMS for the DID number and hopefully you might be able to get the fsk 
modem connection over the VoIP channel.

Maybe
