Re: Free texting app

Paula,
You can use your eMail program for sending text messages.  Every phone 
company has an address for receiving text messages from eMail, like 
Verizon's is 10-digit-phone-num...@vtext.com
HTH.

Subject: Free texting app


Hi there



I was wondering if anybody in Australia has had experience with the
application for the Mac called Free Texting.  I downloaded it and can't get
it to send text messages.  Can anybody recommend a free texting app that
does actually work.  I'm looking for something that uses the net to send
messages rather than charging me a minimal amount to send texts as I have
unlimited calls and texts on my phone.  It's just that typing the message is
easier than sending them from my phone.



Thanks for any help.



Cheers



Paula

Hi Glenn

Does this mean you have to know the phone company of the person you are
sending the text to?

Thanks for your help with this.

Cheers

Paula

That is a shame, at least you should be able to text someone in the U.S. or 
perhaps elsewhere in the world.

Hi Glenn

From what I can tell, we can't send sms from email to text in Australia.
How annoying.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

Cheers

Paula,
Yes, but if you know the list of addresses for the various companies, you
can send a message to all of them with the same phone number, and if it is
not for that company, it will bounce back.
I don't know what companies are in your country, but you can Google it.
