Cannot send sms with error code 2046

[hrGuTou]

I created a new Google account just for Google voice so no 2-step verification enabled.
I got a Gvoice number and it works fine on the web.
It seems that I can successfully login but can't send any messages.

The error code is {'ok': False, 'data': {'code': 2046}}

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\~\venv\lib\site-packages\googlevoice\util.py", line 12, in validate_response
    assert 'ok' in response and response['ok']
AssertionError

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  File "C:/~/gvoice.py", line 14, in <module>
    voice.send_sms(out,"hi from py")

I've noticed a similar issue specifically with group messages. I made a hack work around to send group messages by using the new google voice API. It seems that the legacy google API doesn't support some of the new features. For example, in the legacy client, I can receive group messages in the web, but I can't respond to them..so I had to implement a hack in my script and partially reverse engineer the new google voice API for that purpose.

I think that this project potentially needs an extension to support the new google voice API.

You can see my hack here:

Send SMS

I'm doing that just for group messages for now, but I'm sure that the sendsms endpoint is possibly more reliable than the legacy system.

I think this issue is a duplicate of #4, which seems to be a duplicate of pettazz/googlevoice#44. I'd gladly accept pull requests to improve the situation.
