Can you send and receive texts internationally? You could have your emails relayed. My old phone company offered this, but I bet there's something you could run yourself.
Otherwise ring me and give me your password and I'll read the emails to you.
- sethammons 5y agoCould set up twilio to do all this (disclaimer, employee).
- oriettaxx 5y agoInteresting: I have a dormant twilio account that I better refresh a bit :) btw: does Twilio have some tools to send data splitted in text messages (with a proper client to re-compose the whole message)?
- Karrot_Kream 5y agoNo you'd have to write the client code yourself. Are mobile numbers at risk from being disconnected?
- oriettaxx 5y ago"Otherwise ring me and give me your password and I'll read the emails to you" uh, this is smart and very KISS! really! So YES: somebody read our emails and in the meanwhile get rid of useless content! out of curiosity: if our friend who reads our email create ad audio file while reading, I guess we cannot send the super compressed audio file as DATA (to save on international phone costs)?
- yorwba 5y agoYou could maybe use text-to-speech set to very high speed so the call doesn't take too long.
- jccooper 5y agoIf you can get data, audio would not be the best way to transport emails; just send text instead. You could have emails relayed via SMS, either manual or automated. There are such relay services. (It'd get pretty expensive if you pay per SMS message.) If you have voice only, you could have someone record a reading and play it to you at high speed to save on minutes. You'd record and play at slow speed.
