sms control

[ryanmc]

im trying to generate events using sms ive tried the email and pidgin plugins, using the pidgin plugin was cool but i could only generate one event so i couldnt control much and to use the email plugin i installed hmailserver its instant and runs scripts so it could generate events based on diffrerent criteria im trying to use something like "if subject = lron run function C:\folder\lron.bat , i have 10 or 20 of these dif batch files to run dif events that work ffine with eventghost that id like to run from sms too.
im not sure of the best way to use sms to control pc/eventghost but it seems like it would be the most flexible and robust using eventghost if i knew anything about a script. otherwise im stuck checking email every minute. http://www.hmailserver.com/forum/viewto ... =7&t=15655

why don't you check a bit on xPL discussed at this forum

With Google Talk in your iPhone you could control your EG the way you want

i dont have an iphone i could probably use the java one for other phones. my phone has web and i use the webserver plugin and it works great. we have 5 phones here and im the only one with web though. using txt is faster and easier and would work from anyphone that has txt . thanks

you are of course free to decide your method but I do not agree if you say sms would be faster and simpler
- I'm connected with my Nokia E51 (3G or WiFi or GPRS) and I'm using the java app for GoTalkMobile
- I just write the code words I have defined for the macros I want to run
- Instant reaction from EG, so fast, no way a sms can be faster
