Sending texts to email or vice/versa
Posted: Wed Sep 29, 2010 12:27 am
Well, I had planned on making my 1000th post meaningful, but Reg and whole bunch of other people ruined it for me!!(Stupid r/c car sites with their posts about r/c cars…) Anyway, I thought this was common knowledge until a friend of mine gave me a crazy look when I sent a text to his email. It’s pretty handy and you can send or receive email with no charge(as long as you have texting).
The major US cellular carriers use the [email protected]_domain.com format for SMS to text capable cell phones, with a limit of 160 characters in the subject and message body (total).
