The targets can also be prefixed by a special character to impact the format of how the message is sent. These are currently +, *, or !. (This is an issue for an email address that starts with one of these, but for email the * prefix does nothing, so in the rare case of an email starting with *, !, or +, prefix with a *)
===
You can use one or many of these targets:
====Email====
You may specify an email address, e.g. ''localpart''@''hostname'' and we'll send the messages by email.
*The prefix format + may be used to force mobile numbers to be E.123 (+ prefix) formatted and an ISO8601 timestamp.
====Toot====
You may specify a fediverse address, e.g. @''name''@''hostname'' to get messages as a toot (''direct mention'').
*The prefix format + may be used to force mobile numbers to be E.123 (+ prefix) formatted and an ISO8601 timestamp.
====Mobile====
You may specify a mobile number (no spaces) to forward an SMS to another number (chargeable).
====HTTP====
If you put an entry starting http:// or https:// then we will attempt to send the SMS to you using HTTP (or HTTPS). We recommend https for privacy.
Note that we have, again, tried to use GSM 03.40 field names, but alternative field names are supported for now: ''destination'', ''originator'', ''message''.
We support UTF-8 coding of the full GSM 7 bit character set (including £$¥èéùìòÇØøÅåΔ_ΦΓΛΩΠΨΣΘΞÆæÉÄÖÑܧäöñüà€¡¿). Whilst one message is normally up to 160 characters some characters are coded using two characters using an ESC prefix in the 7 bit alphabet (€,[,\,],^,{,|,},~). The message will be coded as 7, 8 or 16 bit depending on what you include in the text, and this will impact the number of message parts that may be sent ('''meaning you potentially pay for more parts'''). If you include the invalid UTF-8 sequence 0xC0 0x80, then that includes a null in the message. If you include any unicode characters beyond U+0xFFFF then UTF-16 coding is used and sending of text in is UCS2 format. Not all interconnects or devices understand UTF-16 format.
