Send sms on receipt of an e-mail

Hi
I want to be able to create an e mail account and then send an sms to my  mobile when ever any new mails arive in the inbox.
My local provider used to offer this service but has now withdrawn it

for sending an sms, you would need an interface to the switch from where you can actually communicate with the mobile device..

its easy if you have an own switch interface or message center which can deliver you text ..

you have to poll your mailbox for any incoming mails, and set a rule for every new mail, ie., when ever a new mail arrives your mail box, write the data to the text file or csv file in a predefined format and send this csv file to the switching interface which can just text you the data what ever is present in the file..!!

None of the providers in my area offer this as a service so have given up and just gone with receiving e-mails on phone. THanks anyway
