Simple Message Funlet

This Twilio Function is based on the Twimlet of the same name.

It can be used as a drop-in replacement for the Twimlet, by using the URL of the Twilio Function as a webhook with the same GET parameters.

Alternatively, it can be customized by setting properties in the environment. GET and POST parameters are considered first, if provided, then environment properties, then config properties declared in the script.

Environment properties are most convenient when you are using a single instance of this script in your account. To customize multiple instances, the recommended way is to modify the script parameters in the config object, directly in the script.
