There are a number of portals for sending texts from mobile phones. At work I use SMS Global. I am not sure of what costs (if any) are involved but it allows sending a text from a computer and receiving a return text from a mobile. If you obtain services through SMS Global, you simply enter the mobile phone num...@email.smsglobal.com. The only drawback sI have had are that the texts can only be 2-3 lines of an email screen in length and it may take somewhat longer for the reply to reach the sender.
