CRSendAsSender illustrates how to send SMS message using RSendAs in Symbian OS 9.x. To use it just construct the SMS sender by using the static NewL function. The first parameter is reference to the callback observer, which is used to notify when the message is sent.
aMessage argument is used to supply the message body and the aRecipients is used to supply the recipients phone number.
Note that the current implementation of the RSendAs is using default settings values (which can not really be changed) and the message body is converted to the 7-bit-sms format, and all characters that are not defined in the 7-bit-sms format will be replaced with question marks.

Actually this does not send the sms but places in the outbox from where it fails to send it, at least on my N73. It is likely that additional code is needed to kick-off the outbox. --mrtj 19:13, 19 September 2008 (EEST)
