Re: Pop-3 Email to text message

Good evening Larry,
The short answer is yes. I believe that you can send an e-mail to text message from any e-mail client. But, you need to know the e-mail address for the phone, I believe that there are a number of web-sites where you can look this up.
For instance, I am with Rogers Wireless in Canada. To send me a text message you would e-mail: 5551234567@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx (obviously not my real phone number). You will notice that the e-mail is not @rogers.com, but @pcs.rogers.com. Each carrier has their own syntax for how the e-mail address is formed. 

You can also send text messages to most providers through Skype.

HTH,
Everett

Hi folks,

Using JFW 9, Windows XP-pro and Outlook xp (not Outlook
express) is it possible to send a pop-3 Email to a cell
phone with text message capabilities?
