I wouldn't recommend using e-mail to SMS for anything critical but for years, at least in my experience, it's been zippy enough.
12+ hours in some cases for e-mail to SMS though? Come on, that makes it totally unusable. You Europeans should demand better service!

The last time I saw anything take this long was about 16 months ago - New Years 2008.. I personally send quite a few SMS's, and we have a fair few of sms traffic from some of our monitoring - it's never let us down. 'Course, we run our own email to sms gateway for it - don't rely on 3rd parties for these things, that's likely where the issue is! Unless of course the UK is just lightyears ahead of the curve in Europe.. Chris

Called customer service number and got a story about a Media.Net outage in southeast.
Message Service Center +14047259015 if that matters.
Also replying to SMS received emails from your phone that were already there yields an error message, sorry I do not have that saved.
Never get emails sent from gmail never arrive. I assume they suffer a similar fate?

That sort of delay for SMS text messages isn't unusual - bit like email there's no guarantee of timely delivery with SMS. In Europe delays of this nature aren't uncommon
