hmm... more problems..
I can't get the original code to execute at all. Some problem with imap_open.
I get the error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imap_open() in /home/vhosts/mywebpage.com/config.php on line 25
the imap_open line (line 25) in my code is:
$mbox = imap_open ("{pop6.sympatico.ca:110/pop3}INBOX", "myname@sympatico.ca", "mypassword");

Alrighty, one at a time.
Simon: Your error is simpler than Icarus', in that your code is working, it's just not configured correctly. Everything hangs on imap_open, so if it doesn't work, nothing else will (hence the other errors). Try:
Where "mypopserver.com" is the address of your pop server; you might also get away with "localhost".
Your pop server may require different config codes, check the comment section of the original config.php for details.
Icarus: you might try the same code as above, but if it's giving you an error saying that imap_open is an undefined function, you may have a problem. Are you sure your web server supports PHP? I think PHP version 3 introduced imap functions, and now generally web servers come with version 4 or even 5 as standard...
If you're not familiar with PHP coding, you can easily mess things up. My suggestion would be to start over and try again.

Well, I managed to put something together...
I can now send instant SMS messages without going through Rogers site by using this (hobbled together) code (which is no longer PHP I suppose...):

Icarus,
Your code looks good - of course, you're really just replacing the Rogers front end with your own.
Two things:
- add a </form> tag after the submit entry
- not sure why you have the onLoad code in the <body> tag, but if it works for you, then cool.

I'm just learning here... after some reading, I see how I could clean up the above code - the onload doesn't really do anything.
One question i have though - is there a way (using just HTML (or maybe javascript)) so that when you submit the form, you are re-directed to another webpage instead of Rogers page, ie: when you click "send message" now, you end up at a dead-end Rogers page. I would like to send the user back to my home page instead, or a page that says "Message sent" or something like that.
Thanks!

aryko: That didn't fix anything for me. and I've tried using the site, as opposed to the localhost (even though it's running on the server) but to no avail. I've tried pretty much every combination for it too, but nothing seems to work.
Icarus: I've got a perl script to do pretty much what you want - but beware friend, it is the dirtiest code ever to be created in 10 minutes. http://www.0x90.org/~semen/sms2.pl

Well, I figured out the combination. It worked as :
.
But now it throws back
.
and a quick phpinfo shows that as always, the universe is against me. PHP 4.3.10 compiled without cURL. Any simple way around this ? I'm looking into using Snoopy for it, but I have never used PHP before. Any suggestions ?
Edit: Word up. Recompiled it, added curlwrappers and libs and it's working perfectly. This is an awesome script you guys. Thank you very much for making it.

Ok. So did the script stop working for anybody else for no apparent reason ?
I think it may be my server, but it was working fine for a few days, until I went to check my screen(1) session and lynx was spitting back:
Alert!: Unexpected network read error; connection aborted.
Can't Access `http://localhost/auto.php'.
It was working fine. Now it's not. Boo. Any clues before I go ravaging the server?

I had the same problem, I used to subscribe to many alerts from Yahoo and other services, but since Rogers made this change to 'prevent spam', alerts are a pain to get. I would get alot of alerts every day, initially I wanted to bail on Rogers and switch to someone else, but then thought that everyone will go this way.
Recently found this site, it seems to do the job, they send SMS messages to the phones and works well - www.textspin.com. I've been using it for a little while and no complaints.
it'll be interesting to see if Rogers makes the same restrctions with Fido now that they've bought them out.
perhaps we should complain against Rogers to the CRTC!!??

I get this message when I go to run the auto.php through the server. It looks like there's something wrong with the code - but it could be a server side issue. I'm using v 4 from the msn group.
/home/<username>/public_html/sms/auto.php: line 1: ?php: No such file or directory
/home/<username>/public_html/sms/auto.php: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `"config.php"'
/home/<username>/public_html/sms/auto.php: line 3: `include("config.php");'
EDIT: fixed --> was chmoding everything to 777 - changed it and now runs but gets the "couldn't open stream" argument
