body: <p>Is there anyway to send a text message from Twilio so that the from number contains an extension?</p>
  
  <p>Something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
  // Get the PHP helper library from twilio.com/docs/php/install
  require_once('twilio-php/Services/Twilio.php'); // Loads the library
  
  // Your Account Sid and Auth Token from twilio.com/user/account
  $sid = "...";
  $token = "...";
  $client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token);
  $client-&gt;account-&gt;messages-&gt;sendMessage(
      "+441337944066+123#", // From
      "+441234567891", // To
      "Hello world" // Body
  );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>At the moment attempting this produces this error message:</p>
  
  <pre><code> Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Services_Twilio_RestException' with message 'The 'From' number +441337944066+123# is not a valid phone number or shortcode.'
  </code></pre>
