Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

A simple UNIX client allowing you to send SMS messages to mobile phones
and pagers. The software currently supports a number of providers
and protocols from various countries.
Using an unlisted provider that allow TAP access should be quite straight
forward.
There are a large number of services that do not appear to use TAP
but instead simple user interfaces for interactive use by a user dialing up
with a modem. For several UK based services such as these drivers have been
written, note that providers often offer more that one service and as such
you may require a different driver for each one.
