Email-SMS gateway in China (China Mobile)

I was developing a simple SMS application using the Email-SMS Gateways that various Phone companies provide.

So for instance you can send a SMS message by appending a carrier specific email suffix to the mobile number. i.e for AT&T: For the phone number 111-222-3333, it's corresponding Email is [email protected]

The specific Mobile provider that I am trying to send/receive from is China Mobile (中国移动通信集团公司). I have found very extensive lists for virtually all other carriers (Both US and International), but can't seem to find one for this Chinese Carrier.

So my question is:

  1. Is there a public Email-SMS gateway (Such that you could fire an SMS message from a standard email client or server-side scripting langauge like PHP)
  2. If not, then is there any way to get around it, via other services (legally of course).

Thanks

Plan 1: 1000  SMS for 99 RMB.
Plan 2: 5000  SMS for 449 RMB.
Plan 3: 20000 SMS for 1699 RMB.
