An email, from Jesse at Radford University, asks
"Hey-Andy, ...is it possible to send text messages from your computer?"
Yes, it is possible to send a text message from your computer. All you have to do, is know the correct email address to send the message to. Not as easy as it sounds if you don't know the email address of the cell provider. I have compiled a list of addresses to use in sending out an email to text messaging.
Unfortunately, It is not as easy to receive an SMS message on your computer. It can be difficult even for the most computer savvy. Here is a link to information to set up your computer and cell phone to receive your texts on your computer.
Using the information below will allow your to send SMS messages with email;
The major US cellular carriers use the 10_digit_number@cell.carrier_domain.com format for SMS to text capable cell phones, with a limit of 160 characters in the subject and message body (total).
Carrier Send Email to phonenumber@....
Alltel-........................... @message.alltel.com
AT&T -..........................@txt.att.net
SunCom -......................@tms.suncom.com
VoiceStream -.............. @voicestream.net
Verizon -.......................@vtext.com (text only)
Verizon pics & Video....@vzwpix.com (pictures and videos)
T-Mobile -.................... @tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile -..............@vmobl.com
Cingular-...................... @cingularme.com
Sprint -......................... @messaging.sprintpcs.com
Nextel -..........................@messaging.nextel.com
Verizon users can register an alias at vtext.com to give out instead of their phone number. Both alias@vtext.com and phone_number@vtext.com will be valid addresses for the phone.
