How to Send Email to a Cell Phone
By Matt Lee
Have you ever wanted to email someone's cell phone but didn't know how? Well now you can! Most cell phones that have text messaging capability can easily receive email without having to access the internet like you would need to do with a Blackberry or other PDA.
Instructions
1.
Step 1
To start, you need to know the cell phone carrier of the cell phone you want to send an email to. If you are unsure, you can look it up online at
http://www.whitepages.com/10866/reverse_phone. Type in the cell phone number and press search. The returned results will inform you of the registered service provider (i.e.; cell phone company).

Step 2
Now you can determine the email address. The email address will be the cell phone number followed by the carrier extension. An example email address would be 8565551111@vtext.com for cell phone number 856-555-1111 with Verizon Wireless as a service provider. Some of the more popular cell phone carrier extensions are listed below.
