Oh... "Unrouteable address" looked for me like an error.

That's strange: it does not work, here is the log:

HAH! I got it!!!!!!!!! 

In /etc/aliases was an (guess what!) alias which looked like this:

sms: smsd

But this does not work because I use a smarthost. So I have to write

sms: smsd@[192.76.176.112]

And: YEP! It works.

Thanks for helping!
