Question Looking for US email-to-sms service

Please Login to Remove!

Hello,

I recently purchased a blackberry 7230 (t-mobile) and am getting used to it.
I tried their blackberry web service and was extremely disappointed as that is why I purchased this device in the first place. I only had access to their T-Zones and no REAL internet. I don't need email. I need my old sms ability, like on a regular phone, to work properly.

I've noticed that if a message is sent to this address [phonenumber]@tmomail.net then it works, AS LONG AS IT WAS SENT FROM AN EMAIL.
When the same message is sent from a web service, like using php's sendmail function, I receive the activity indicator, but no message is received.

I can send and receive sms messages just fine from phone to phone and also, like I said before, from email to phone. I CAN'T receive from a website.

I need to figure out what I need to get this working.
I have done some research on "email-to-sms" services, but they are all in non-English.

Here is what I need.
1. An email address to accept emails.
2. A converter for the accepted emails to send via a sms network.
3. I need this to work.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks and glad to be here,
David

Sounds to me like you may need the Sidekick instead of a BlackBerry....

i think that a list of all the email addresses for all the wireless companies would be helpful. i know that verizon is vtext.com and i get t-mobile is tmomail.net (from above). what is it for spring, cingular and nextel? that way u can just save a person's phone email address to send an sms

I've heard that you can email to a person's cell phone number "@teleflip.com" and that converts the message to an SMS on that user's service. I've never tried it myself, though.
