Is the use of the phone a real requirement (i.e. is the machine disconnected 
or required to send messages while disconnected from the internet) ? We use 
a service from http://www.messagenet.com.au/ and it works a treat. Depending 
on the number of messages you have to send and their destinations it can 
work out to be quite economical compared to using a phone account.

If you need to use it disconnected then this is obviously pointless and you 
can just ignore me as I can't assist in your original question... 8^)

Cheers,
Michael
