Hi Loren;
To send a text message from your computer to someone's cell phone, do the
following. There will be a complete list of cell phone suffixes to use at
the end of the steps.
1. If you want to send a text message to someone using A T&T, for example,
and their cell phone number is 555-555-5555. You open a new email message
and in the " To " field type [email protected] You don't put any
dashes in the cell number, just the digits.
2. Tab to the subject field and put in a subject line.
3. Tab to the edit field and put in your message. Then send as usual.
They receive the text message and, when they reply, it comes
to your inbox. Here are the email suffixes you add to the cell phone
number.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Texting from PC?
The message below came through this list a couple of months ago. I had
occasion to check out some of the texting methods described here.
Unfortunately, they didn't work.
I sent a text message to myself using my cell phone plus carrier as
described. I eventually got a delivery failure notice in my e-mail and no
text message on my phone.
I checked out the links at teleflip.com which the post said could be used if
you don't know a carrier. The company has ceased operation so that method
doesn't work either.
This is really too bad since the idea seems good.
