[SailfishDevel] Status of Sailfish SMS?

[christopher.lamb at thurweb.ch]

Hi Jonni

Could you please confirm whether or not it will be possible to send  
SMSes direct from an app? (from your reply below it seems this will  
not be possible).

My app Landed on Harmattan could send SMS directly - indeed it is the  
raison-d'etre for the app, and it is obvious to the user that he is  
sending an SMS (so no problems of secret bypassing...).

My understanding was that it should be possible to send SMS from an  
app on Sailfish using Telepathy.

I would be thankful for clarification on this issue.

Chris
