In this company were always getting emails with vital information, But we are not always able to be near a computer to check it.
The First method is to set up Email forwarding, all email providers have this option, Even webmail. You can forward the email directly to your phone (as an sms) this is the easiest, but should only be done if you have an unlimited texting plan, or you can forward your email to the email address provided to you by you phone carrier. (ex: user@sprintpcs.com).
When forwarding directly to your phone as an (SMS), find the email forwarding option in your email, It is usually under settings, and use the below Carrier Specific templates.
Alltel (from: 50, msg: 116, total: 116)
10digit-number@message.alltel.com
Boost (from: 30, msg: 120, total: 120)
10digit-number@myboostmobile.com
Cingular (from: 20, msg: 160, total: 160)
10digit-number@mobile.mycingular.com
Nextel (from: 50, msg: 126, total: 126)
10digit-number@messaging.nextel.com
Sprint PCS (from: 15, msg: 160, total: 160)
10digit-number@messaging.sprintpcs.com
SureWest Communications
10digit-number@mobile.surewest.com
T-Mobile USA
10digit-number@tmomail.net
Verizon Wireless
10digit-number@vtext.com.
But my personal favorite is to set up the emails to forward to (sms), and to a gmail account by google. this way I will be alerted when an email hits the inbox and i can read the first 160 characters of the email, if its something i need to read right away, I can launch my google mail app from my phone, and check it on the fly.
Hope this helps
