SOAP / Webservices
OutboxSMS presents two SOAP interfaces, one for controlling OutboxSMS
configuration, and the other for sending and receiving messages. Any
programming or scripting language that supports SOAP can be used to
control OutboxSMS and send messages. E.g. Perl, PHP, .NET, Python etc.

Plain Text Email
Messages can be sent and received by sending plain text emails. Most
scripting languages and programming languages allow email to be sent
and received. This can be used to interface to OutboxSMS.

|
COM Object DLL
If the application is developed on a Microsoft Windows operating
system, a COM DLL can be used to interface to OutboxSMS. The COM API
allows full control of the OutboxSMS configuration, status and
messaging.

Plain Text Files
OutboxSMS message routing and queueing uses plain text message files
placed in queue folders. The message files have a standard format,
which makes it easy to construct and manipulate messages from external
programs.
