The source address that should appear in the message

• Max Length of 18 if Only Numeric

If you wish plus ('+') should be prefixed to the sender address when the message is displayed on the cell phone, please prefix the plus sign to your sender address while submitting the message (note the plus sign should be URL encoded). Additional restrictions on this field may be enforced by the SMSC.

Message

The message to send (Can be used for 'long' messages, that is, messages longer than 160 characters for plain text, 140 for flash and 280 for Unicode) For concatenated (long) messages we will be counting as one message for every 153 characters for plain text and 268 characters for Unicode, as the rest of the characters will be used by the system for packing extra information for re-assembling the message on the cell phone. In case of WAP Push (type = 4), this is the text that would appear in the message. Also in the latter case, to send non-English characters in the message, you only have to directly URL encode them (using UTF-8 character encoding scheme).
