To send an text from email, follow these steps:


Step 1

  • Ensure that SMS-To-Email is enabled on your Freshphone number and you are emailing from an address that receives the text emails.

  • If you have received a text already, the simplest thing is to "reply" to that email in your email inbox.

  • Make sure you clear all signatures and default content. A subject line is not required.

  • Write your brief message and send.

  • If you need to originate an SMS-to-Email message without having received a text, continue to the following steps.


Step 2

  • To originate a text using email, use the following syntax in the "To" field:

    • F<Your #>-T<Destination #>@mysmsforward.com

  • Example: F6167104534-T6165551234@mysmsforward.com

    • In this example, 6167104534 would be the Freshphone DID that has SMS enabled. 6165551234 is the destination telephone number.

  • Make sure you delete all signatures, thread history, and any other superfluous content from your email or else it may error out and the message will not send.
