Send Text Messages to Cell Phones from Your Computer

Posted under Resources, Tools by ltruex

Are you working at your computer and don’t have the time to text messages to people out on the road? Now you can use your email account to send text messages to any cell phone.

To send a text message from your computer determine the correct SMS email format for the recipient’s cell service carrier. See below for SMS email formats for the major carriers. Or if you aren’t sure what carrier the recipient has, you can send a message through TeleFlip’s free service by emailing the recipient’s phonenumber@teleflip.com.

It even works to send the recipient’s reply back to your email instead of your cell phone!
