SMS Text Message Addresses

SMS text message codes

SMS text message email address for all cell phone companies are listed below.  If you are trying to find out how to send or receive an SMS text message to a cell phone and you do not know the proper format or the cell phone provider’s SMS text message address url, you can find out here.

What you need to know about text messages

If you send a text message to a cell phone user who has text messaging turned off, your message will not bounce back as undeliverable — You will never know that your text message was not received.

If you send a text message to a landline phone that does not receive text messaging, your message will not bounce back as undeliverable — You will never know that your text message was not received.

How Text Messages Are Sent

Cell phones, not just smartphones, have the ability to receive short text messages, called short message service (SMS), also known as text message, text messaging, text paging, cell phone messaging, or cell phone email.  SMS text messages can usually be no longer than 160 characters.  The maximum text message length includes headers (to:, from:, and subject: lines) in addition to the message body.  If an email sent to a cell phone is longer than the number of characters your cellular carrier permits, the e-mail will get cut off at the limited number of characters or broken into multiple SMS messages. 

SMS messages can be sent to cell phones from any other cell phone, any e-mail address account or from a web site form at the cell phone providers web site.  

Text messages can also be sent to some landline phones and toll free numbers.

When someone sends an e-mail message to the cell phone’s email address, it will get turned into an SMS text message and sent to the cell phone, usually within seconds after it was sent.  To send or receive cell phone SMS text messages, all you need is to find out the cell phone’s email address (below).

How to Find Out a Cell Phone’s SMS Text Messaging email Address

Figuring out a cell phone’s SMS text messaging email address is easy.  First, you need to know the 10 digit telephone number.  Simply add the @ symbol and the cell phone provider’s URL after the 10 digit cell phone number.  When sending SMS text messages to a cell phone, do not use the 1 in front of the area code and do not use hyphens – or parenthesis () in the cell phone number/SMS text message address.

US and Canadian Cell Phone Company Addresses to Send a Text Message

Don’t know the cell phone provider’s address for SMS text messaging?  The following table shows the cell phone provider’s address for text messaging for common US and Canadian cell phone carriers.  You can also use the “text message form” links to go to a web page where you can send your SMS text message to any cell phone.  The Text messaging email addresses are provided as a free service without any guarantee of being correct.  If you need to send an important text message by email, you should verify the text message address.  In fact, SMTP is not time sensitive and there can be delays in the receipt of the email.  If your text message is important, find out if your carrier supports SNPP or WCTP.
