I'm trying to link Backback and Tropo to send reminders to groups.
Backpack can send reminders via email or SMS, and Tropo can receive messages via a custom SMS number; the problem is that Backback sends the SMS via email, and needs a provider. It can also be activated with a specific url and receives REST or JSON data.
Is there any way to activate a Tropo application using email or find out what provider setting I should use for Tropo?
ON TROPO:
Phone Numbers:
Voice & Messaging: (705) xxx-xxxx
Outbound Tokens:
Voice: ...
Messaging: ...
Tropo does not have an email gateway for receiving SMS. Applications that send SMS by email won't be able to send to Tropo.
One thing you could do is built a small catcher application that receives the REST call from backpack and then makes a REST call to Tropo to send the SMS. It would be sort of like a translator from Backpack's REST api to Tropo's.

How to use different sender address in sending emails in Laravel. What i want is to send some emails from one email id and some mails from second email id but gmail is picking up every time the configuration done in env not from mailable class.
You can't replace sender with Google SMTP service.
Google rewrites the From and Reply-To headers in messages you send via it's SMTP service to values which relate to your gmail account.
GMail does allow sending via different addresses or alias but this is for sending via the GMail web app, see Here
If you own the domain you are supposedly sending from, use the Gmail for Domains , and setup a "myapp#mydomain.com" account.
Or, use another SMTP provider
I was about to start developing my companies website which is currently in research phase. I was researching with the Aweber API (https://api.aweber.com/) but did not find the API for using a send mail function.
I came across Create Broadcast API here
https://api.aweber.com/#tag/Broadcasts/paths/~1accounts~1{accountId}~1lists~1{listId}~1broadcasts/post
but this requires a list to be used I want to send email to individual contact in the list separately. Any help would be appreciated.
AWeber's API can only send broadcast messages to a list, or a previously created segment of subscribers. You cannot send messages out to a single person solely using the API.
You could use the web UI to create a segment of "email address is ...", then get the segment and send the message to it using the API, but that requires an extra step.
In my application, I have about 50 users that need to send and receive SMS. How would I integrate this using Twilio? Do I need a number per user so that when they revive an SMS, I can show it to a specific user only?
The link below shows how to receive SMS, but I need help storing/displaying the SMS to the correct user only.
Laravel/Twilio Receiving SMS
I hope this gets a response.
Say Person A sends an SMS to a shortcode in a certain syntax. How could a confirmation SMS be sent to Person A's mobile phone automatically ("Your message has been received successfully!"), after determining that the SMS received from Person A is in the correct syntax? I'm a total newbie when it comes to SMS - so if anyone could describe the entire end-to-end process/architecture that could make this happen, I'd be grateful!
You'd have to find a gateway provider who handles the receiving and the sending of messages for you using a defined API talking to a script/application in the language of your choice.
You usually receive messages on a number defined by the gateway provider. Incoming messages will trigger a call to a URL defined by you. Behind that URL will usually be a script that then performs the desired actions (e.g. parsing the message and sending an automated response SMS through the gateway provider.)

BulkSMS provides facilities for you to both send mobile terminating (MT) messages and handle receipt of mobile originating (MO) messages.
You can request a short code, which your users then send MOs to. The message can then be relayed, via a simple HTTP request, to your web server. You application then determines a suitable response and replies via SMS by calling the MT API of BulkSMS.
There may be restrictions and legislation applicable, depending on where you are, where your users are and the networks the messages are passing through. They can provide assistance here too.
