In the past, I know someone who used perl scripts to use the free
web clients to send SMS messages, but the latency between email
and SMS being delivered varied between 20 minutes and 3 hours, and
so this person considered it unreliable enough, and went with the
9 quid per quarter locust.net subscription service, and has been
quite happy with them (they were taken over by Orange last November,
but it seems to work with most UK networks).
