Forwarding email by text message

can any one tell me if this is possible and if so how to do so?
Thanks in advance

I know you can forward a text to an e-mail address but I don't think you can do it the other way. If its just a short message I guess you could cut and paste but maybe some of the more experienced users on these forums have a work around.

MacMail keeps turning my forwarded emails into text attachments

I need help. I use Macmail as my business email address and when I forward an email I want it to stay in the body of my email and instead mail changes the forwarded emails into text file attachments. No one is opening them or seeing them. They don't want to open attachments because they are too busy. Please help, I want to keep my forwards in the same email as my new note. I tried turning off Rich text in the preferences and that didn't help. It still does it using plain text. I have a jpg as part of my signature that goes under my new note, not at the bottom of the forward. I'm using MacMail 4.3 and OS 10.6.4.

You have to get rid of that JPG in your signature and also make sure to remove any styled fonts or colors too. When you do anything fancy in your signature, that will turn your message into a Rich Text message, regardless of what Apple Mail says it is.

Email to text message

Before I switched to an iPhone it was possible for someone to email a message that was received as a text message (SMS). there are times that receiving a text message is much more convenient than checking email. The AT&T web site says it should be possible to do this by emailing a message as follows:
"All AT&T wireless phones are set up to send and receive e-mail messages by using the following address: [email protected] You can exchange short e-mails with any e-mail address worldwide."
However, when I or anyone else tries to do this to my iPhone the email immediately bounces back with the message of "no such user" or something like that.
It is clear that on the iPhone you cannot enter anything other than numbers when you want to text someone but I would be content if I could receive texts that originate as an email.
AT&T says this feature doesn't work on iPhones.
However, I went into an Apple store and an employee successfully emailed a text message to themselves on their iPhone
I think the problem is that AT&T somehow messed up my account so that they don't have a way of accepting an email intended for my text messaging.
Can anyone shed any light on this? I have a 3GS.
Thanks,
Pete

Allan-
you CANNOT enter an email address in the "To:" field of the Message app on an iPhone. first of all the entry keyboard that pops up when you are in the Messages app only has letters and numbers. there is no way to enter the "@" symbol or a ".". even if you copy an email address and paste it into the "To:" field, when you try and send the SMS the "." and the "@" are removed.
give it a try and see what you see.
but, that isn't what I want to do. I want someone sitting at a computer using any old email client to send an email that gets sent to as a SMS. to do that the person should enter:
[email protected]
when the person does that with my cell phone number, the email gets bounced back. have you tried this on your computer using your cell phone number and the rest of the address above and iPhone and does it work?
thanks,
Pete Rock

My iPhone no longer gives me audible alerts for email and text messages. Just stopped. Help.

My iPhone just stopped giving me audible notifications for email and text messages. It still rings for calls. I have checked the settings for "Sounds" and they have not changed. However, in these settings when I try to change the sound I get only the vibration and not the sample sound. Can anyone help?

I used to be able to increase the size font of the persons name sending me an email or text message. I have an iphone 5 and can no longer do that. Help!

I used to be able to increase the size font of the persons name sending me an email or text message. I have an iphone 5 and can no longer do that. Help!

Just the name? Don't ever recall that being a feature. However, for Mail and Messages (and a few other apps): Settings app > General > Text Size

I can no longer see the gray "suggested text" boxes when I type an email or text message. How do I restore this function?

I upgraded my phone to the latest operating system a few days ago. I really like the gray suggested text boxes that appeared when typing an email or text message. That function has stopped. How do I get it back?

Make sure you have "Predictive" turned on (green) in Settings > general > Keyboards.

Just wondering why an email or text message cannot be sent to prepaid customers to let us know when another card is needed. Straight talk does this a week in advance. Thanks

Perhaps you can sign into your MyVerizon account online and see if the options are available, but not turned on.

How do I delete/forward portions of text messages in ios7

I'm guessing you mean portions of the thread? Tap on the message you want to delete or foward. Tap "More" on the pop up menu that appears. Select any messages you want to forward or delete. Tap either the trash can in the lower left or the forward arrow in the lower right.

How do I get my Blackberry to only show me email and text messages? OS 6.0

I'm in a love/hate relationship with OS 6.0 on a Bold 9650
It is giving me too much information. I only want to see and be notified of email and text messages, but it is now showing me Calendar and Facebook messages and notices.
Can I change the settings and turn off these items? I can't find anything on it.
Thanks!!! SheriGNP
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Facebook messages: Open Facebook > press the Menu key > Options > scroll down to and UNselect the option to integrate Facebook with your Messages application.
For both Facebook and Calendar notifications, go to your profiles and set the notications for these two apps to be silent or no notification.
Untill you learn many of the simple features of the BlackBerry 9650, you will be frustrated.

When will the bluetooth support audio alerts for email and text messages?

When will the bluetooth support audio alerts for email and text messages? It works when I get a phone call, but I'd like it to work when getting a text message (I do this a lot in noisier areas and would rather not have to look at the phone every few minutes)
Or is there a configuration option I'm missing?

Send contact info in email or text message on iphone

How can I send contact information in an email or a text message? Also, is there are way that I can copy information within a contact, email or text message for use elsewhere?

You guys just wait ! !
The iPhone is simply a breakthrough... It's interface is revolutionnary.
Of course many functions are missing right now (I myself could list a good 5 cruelly missing features, but it's not the object of this answer...).
But here's a thought :
Apple is NEW at this... The most important part of a phone is...to be able to make or receive a call... that has to be ALWAYS working.
So, Apple is making sure that the iPhone is STABLE. In order to do so, it needs to proceed cautiously, adding a bunch of features aphazardly would probably cause the iphone to crash regularly, something Apple simply can't let happen : IT'S STILL A PHONE ! !
It's true Apple seems to have made some wrong choices at the beginning (ex: no third-party apps !), but they have come back from that !They will soon deliver a platform for third-party apps that will guarantee stability.
So, I am positive that the future updates will allow us to do EVERYTHING a Blackberry does (or any other phone...)in a much smoother way too...
But if being patient is the price to pay for stability, I can wait !
Some of you will argue that Apple should have work out these kinks sooner and launch a "finished" product. Do that I would answer : you've got to launch it sometimes ! If you wait too long, you might get passed by...
It seems that the iPhone is a succes despite its faults... Apple has established their customer base and I think it will now start to Deliver even more on the iPhone !
And to think I don't even own stock ! How could I write such a dithyrambic post ! !

Long-press the message and you should get a pop-up with various choices, including Forward the message.

Email and text messages notifications

I was wondering is there any way to set the iphone so that as soon as you get an email or a text, you are notified immediately. It seems that I am only notified when I update my mail and that's when the phone tells me how many mails I have received. It only happens at that moment. I want to be notified right away as soon as I receive the email or text.

If you have an email account that supports Push access for received messages which doesn't require having the account checked automatically or manually for new messages, you will hear the new mail notification sound if on when a new message or messages pushed out by the incoming mail server are received along with a badge notification on the Mail app indicating the number of new and unread messages.
If the email account does not support Push access for received messages or this is turned off, you can have the account checked for new messages automatically, which is the Fetch setting and the same will apply when new messages have been received.
