your telephone company how this is done.
With the telephone company German Telecom e.g., the first registration is free
of charge*. You simply have to send an SMS with the message:
"ANMELD" to the telephone number 8888.
In return you will receive a registration confirmation from the SMS-Service of
German Telecom. Now you can be sure that sending as well as receiving SMS
messages will work with your terminal unit which supports SMS.
Sending "ANMELD" to the telephone number 8888 you can de-register your
particular telephone number. Future SMS messages sent to your telephone
number then would be read to you as voice messages.

Important notes:
In case you cannot get in contact with the service centre please verify whether
or not your telephone access is authorised to dial that number. The SMS centre
of German Telecom, e.g. cannot be reached from within networks of other
telephone companies.
Many telephone companies are also blocking the prefix 0900 so that you also
cannot reach the service centre of www.sms-im-festnetz.de. In this case please
contact your telephone company to have that prefix authorised (can be with
costs).
