can an email be sent to a phone #?

Try this, only works to a Cell phone, not a land line.

Step 1

Create a new e-mail message just as you normally would and compose a message.

Step 2

Write the recipient's 10-digit telephone number followed by the domain name of the carrier that they use, in the "To" section of the e-mail. For example if their phone number is 415-521-0325 and they have an account with AT&T it would look like this-4155210325@txt.att.net. Below is a list of domain names for common US carriersAlltel: cellnumber@message.alltel.comAT&T: cellnumber@txt.att.netCingular: cellnumber@cingularme.comMetro PCS: cellnumber@MyMetroPcs.comNextel: cellnumber@messaging.nextel.comPowertel: cellnumber@ptel.netSprint: cellnumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com|SunCom: cellnumber@tms.suncom.comT-Mobile: cellnumber@tmomail.netUS Cellular: cellnumber@email.uscc.netVerizon: cellnumber@vtext.comVirgin Mobile: cellnumber@vmobl.com
