Has anyone else seen this?

I think any Network in any country can send emails via text message, you send email-address#message to +447940300300

Does it work for you?

I'm not sure if they can read the messages or not (I wouldn't send my credit card details the way though!)

I don't think they're real numbers, I think they're like virtual numbers that can just be used for text messaging, not 100% sure though.

I use it quite alot it's much easier than using the email client in the T68 and a hell of a lot cheaper!

A friend told me! It will work in any country so long as you can send a text message, an example message follows:

name@hotmail.com#hello this is an email from my mobile

if you want to add the subject instead on your mobile

name@hotmail.com##subject#hello this is a test message

then send to +447940300300 and it should work from anywhere in the world to any email address!

So does it work from Canada?
