Jep ... and that's the way it is.

Ok ... it has not to be integrated with IMP. Actually, you could just build
your own sms gateway on whatever platform and then use ***@sms.***.**

If, on the other site, you wanted to integrate the whole thing with the same
eMail-address on no matter what (sending and receiving, means also storing
send sms in sent items folder and incomming sms in inbox of course), then
this is a bit more of a programming task. However .. this should not be
impossible ...

I would rather implement this on a MTA / MDA layer, than implementing it in
IMP. That way it's usable for any mailer. Of course preferences and so on
could be done in IMP.
