You could also install am app like Tasker or Macrodroid and set up triggers for handling incoming SMS (e.g. If SMS received, forward using another mechanism)

For outgoing SMS, have Tasker or Macrodroid watch an email inbox and send emails to that inbox with a format like email subject line = recipient phone number, email message body = SMS body. Then parse it through those automation apps and have it send the SMS for you.

I did something like this before and it worked decently well but I haven't had the best luck with getting Android apps to run stable for long periods of time without manual intervention. Not sure if it was battery optimization settings or what.
