He can't - Wooly One's getting spam SMSses (from the sixtext people amongst others) sent to his landline number, and the autoreader service is dumbly reading it out to him as it does any text, spam or no. Spammers never take no for an answer.

TPS registration might help at least curb the spam texts, but the best way is to call customer support at the phone provider in question (whether VM or BT or whoever it is provides your phone line) and ask about ways to stop SMS-to-voice service completely.
