I'm keeping it as simple as possible with freely available tools.

Webmail user has a checkbox if he wants to forward his mail to sms. That
generates a sieve rule to redirect his mail to phonenumber at sms.our.domain.
MTA (postfix) notices the domain and routes the mail via dedicated transport
to a mail2sms script, that strips it down and takes care of the strane sms
chartable and then forwards the msg to our local mobile operater via their
ssl channel.

All this has some added cruft (which mails to forward and when, billing,
user <-> phonenum mapping, ...) but works ok.
