If you can access the MySQL database from the computer where you installed Diafaan SMS Server you can automatically receive the message information from the MySQL database with an SQL Connector (see MySQL database and Access your database for more information).

However if the MySQL database is not accessible you have to use another way. One method is to set up an e-mail POP box and use an E-mail Connector to convert the e-mail messages to SMS messages. A PHP script can be used to send the messages to the e-mail POP box.

The Web Connector also has an HTTP API that can be used, but this requires that the Diafaan SMS Server Web Connector is accessible from the internet.

It is also possible to use the scripting Connector to create a C# script that periodically polls for new messages with an HTTP call to a PHP page, this requires a PHP script that converts the messages from the database to XML and a C# script that reads the XML records and send out the messages.
