If your objective is to communicate, then you have to make your communication as easy as possible for your recipient(s) to grasp. Using SMS-speak on a mailing list just makes your mail difficult to understand and some people (including me) will just ignore mails with SMS-speak in them because they find it takes too much effort to grok the mail. Why should I bother to help someone who isn't concerned enough to state his/her problem in full words?
