I think you mean "smssend".

It can use quite a lot of different web services, so you can send smses to
phones in other countries and such.  Quite a nice tool, except that a lot of
the companies are discontinuing their web services.

The other option is a program, whose name I can't remember, which can dial
up to a provider using a land-line modem to send the messages.  This is
somewhat unreliable though since their lines were very often busy.
