Depending on your cell-phone provider, you not need a script. I have a CDMA
phone through Airtouch and their system is configured so that mail to
phonenumber@xxxxxxxxxxxx is sent to the phone if you've paid for the
text-messaging service. If you buy service with a company which does this,
all you'd need to do is set your mailserver to forward from that account to
your provider's gateway address.
