How to Receive Send an SMS Text With Freeware

1. Open the email application of your choice and create a new email. In the 'TO' address bar input the 10-digit cellular phone number you wish to text.

Go to the Email Text Messages website for a full list of wireless carrier email text codes (see Resources). Compose and send your email. The provider will automatically convert it to a text message and send it to the mobile number you entered. When you get a reply, it will come in the form of an email in your inbox. This email will contain the return text. If you want to continue texting back and forth, simply replay to the received email.
2. Use a website like Txt2day or Text'em (see Resources). Just log on to the website, input the number you wish to send a text message to, select the phone number's carrier and type your message. If you want a return text, you must enter your email address. The recipient's text will be received in your email inbox.
3. Download a program for texting. Although many programs make you pay per text message, some free ones are out there. Downloading and installing a program like GoText will allow you to keep an address book of phone numbers in an application and text these numbers from a computer (see Resources). If you wish to receive a return text, you will have to input a valid email address. Your return text message will be received as an email in your inbox.
