Thanks for the tip - I tried it but still nogo.  I've tried both
403070xxx and 0403070xxx.  Neither works - perhaps this number range
isn't mapped?

Out of interest I tried sending to Telstra Mobilenet both with and
without the leading zero (0419808xxx and 419808xxx) - both messages
worked - it would appear that Unimobile is programmed to handle numbers
with or without the leading zero.

Incidentally, messages are time-stamped 4 hours behind Australian EST.
Does this indicate that the Unimobile server is in India or a similar
time zone?

Love,
Carla
