Version 2.2 of SMSNotify 2004 has now been released.





New in this release is SPAM Guard which allows you to filter out SMS messages from contacts not within your contact list. You can also apply a content filter which allows you do treat messages as SPAM based on words in the context of the message. A useful feature for those who receive junk SMS's all receive lots of SMS messages from various computer systems.

These options affect all incomming SMS messages, though they can also be applied individually at the contact level thus individual users can be blocked or have content filters applied only to their SMS messages.

When a message is treated as spam, you choose to either delete the message or move it automatically from your inbox into your recycle bin folder for later viewing. These options can also be unique to each user, thus some users can have their messages deleted while messages from other users can be kept for viewing later.

Also new is this release is the ability to set reminders to contacts. When they send you a message, if it is not acknowledged a reminder window will popup every X (user defined minutes) and play their tone and optionally vibrate the device to remind you.

Want a visual representation of incomming SMS messages, in V2 you could assign photos to contacts and have a popup dialog with their image and message text when they text you. Now you can do this for all incomming messages. If active, a dialog will appear with the senders number and message text. From this dialog you can also immediately reply to the sender so you no longer have to click back to go into your inbox.

Coming soon is a free extension which will allow the SMS reminder function to work on all incomming messages, not just users with events assigned within SMSNotify.

Version 2.2 is available immediately from smartphone.net in release and demo version.

Hi Jason. Great program!

You sent me this program earlier today (I registered through Paypal) and I am playing around with it right now. No doubt this will result in a few questions, and here's the first smile.gif

I am using a forwarding system that sends me a SMS, whenever I get new email. Of course this happens a LOT, so I need to tone this down a bit. Only problem is that this system doesn't show a normal phone number as sender ID, but just a 'name' called 'New Email'.

When reading the SMS there's an option to add the sender to the contact list, but since this only adds the name 'New Email' and not a number, the contact is unrecoqniceable by SMSNotify. Any way to work around this problem? Thanks.

Hi,

If you go into your inbox and have a look at these messages you receive when you get an email, in the From Field it says 'New Email' right?
Does it say that as well if you move the "cursor" over the name. Normally it pops up a tool window with the senders number.

Good stuff Jason smile.gif

A couple of things:

Good to see that the reminder tone is now obeying the sound profile. However, the Spam tone isn't. Any chance of fixing that one?

If I send myself a text 'Me' in the address book, the reminder says "For: Melo" then 2 squares, then "(", then a square then "net.nz\SMSNotify 2004 V2\SMSNotify-ContactReminder.exe". (Also, shouldn't 'For' say 'From'?)

I'm also getting some strange characters after the name in the 'From:' line on the normal notification screen.

And finally, a feature request - can you add an option to filter by 'SMS Reminder On'?

Many thanks.

I have tried that, but nothing happens. No number pops up. Guess this means there's nothing to do?

A question #2: Is there a way to globally turn on the 'vibrate on sms' function? I haven't been able to find it.

I've purchased version 2.0, does that mean I get a free upgrade to 2.2 or do I have to pay the full purchase price again?

I've been emailed it now, but I'm having problems getting it to use the profile tones?

If I select a tone in sms notify it will play that, but it dont vibrate and won't play the default tone in the global phone settings under sound?

Version 2.0 did it no problem, any ideas?

Can you expand further by what you mean profile tones?
when you have SMSNotify installed, it uses the default tone set within SMS notify for contacts that do not have a tone assigned to them. It does not use the SMS tone assigned within the device.

Great. Fortunately for me, I was able to send the file to a friends email, and it works fine tongue.gif

In about 5 days time we are releasing the SMSNotify Extensions page.
This is a list of some free plugins which compliment SMSNotify.

In the beginning we will have the following plugins
- Vibrate on ALL SMS Messages Plugin
- Contact Reminder for ALL SMS Messages Plugin
- Inbox recorder (Saves SMS messages to text file on your device for archival)
- 05 Voice Mail plugin (For those who get a txt message from the number 05- SMSNotify will automatically delete it for you)

Some of these may not be available immediately but are on their way.
external developers can submit plugins or Contact Display templates as well to have them hosted on this page.

If you go into SMSNotify -> Options -> Settings -> Application Options.
Make sure that Show Msg Popup is ticked. This will popup a dialog on every SMS message.

If you have this set, and when you get a new voice mail message it does not appear, then I would say that your mobile provider has implemented their own hook somehow which is prohibiting SMSNotify from access to this message.
