Things You'll Need:
- A computer and any e-mail account or a cellphone with a browser.
-
Step 1
Just sign in to your e-mail account. Click on the 'compose a message' button.
-
Step 2
Type your SHORT messageIf your friend's phone number is (515) 537-1234 and their cell phone service provider is Sprint, you would type in the 'send message' section: 5155371234@messaging.sprintpcs.com. Your friend will receive the message within seconds. Just try it and see.
-
Step 3
Here are the other codes for other cell phone service providers. If you are not sure who your friend's service provider is, just try sending text messages to the all the major providers. Most people have either Sprint, TMobile, Verizon or AT&T. It won't cost you anything but time. Here, try these codes:
T-Mobile: phonenumber@tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile: phonenumber@vmobl.com
Cingular: phonenumber@cingularme.com
Sprint: phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
Verizon: phonenumber@vtext.com
Nextel: phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com
AT&T: phonenumber@txt.att.net
If you have a Web browser on your cell phone, you can send text messages from there as well. If you are paying to have the Internet on your cell phone, just send messages through the Web instead of paying for separate text messaging service.

on 2/16/2009 the person receiving the e-mail/text will pay the same regular price as a cell-to-cell text. it's no extra cost to the person you are sending to. if you are at home, send through your e-mail instead of your cell fone.
