I use it for sending a grocery list to my phone, and conversing with the SO to her phone from my computer.

Now I'm wondering if people can do this to other providers like ATT/Sprint etc from gmail.

Ok, do me a solid. If you have a Verizon cell phone, use your computer -based email to send a brief message to yourphonenumber@vtext.com

thanks

Well, how cool is that? It just worked for me using AOL mail (don't laugh!)

This could come in handy... :)

I used outlook and the message went through fine. Looks like it's Gmail. I've sent a screen shot of the error messages to their Feedback. Hope somebody reads it.

and you may get an error message later.

I used gmail from a desktop, never got the message on my phone.

I tried from gmail using my tablet, and received a text on my phone from Google voice with the text from the gmail I sent to my phone number

So it's working for me, I haven't used Vtext email option in about 9 years, maybe more, maybe 11 years, I forgot it was even available

Thanks. Looks like it works for some. Weird. What email are you guys using? Mine is Gmail. I'm not sure if it's that or Verizon

I sent a message to my Verizon phone and it worked fine!

Tried sending it 5 minutes ago. Haven't received anything yet on the phone.
