Send a computer typed message to a phone as a text message

Is there a way to type a message via my regular e-mail format and send it to a phone number so they receive it as a text message? I know it can be done by my phone, but it would be nice when I am at my computer and want to send a messageto someone on their phone. I don't see anything on your website that lets me do this. Thanks in advance.   DL Busch

One way is to use Cox Mobile Connect if you have a smartphone. It has text option, see here for more info.

If you don't have a smart phone or don't use Cox email, you can also send to specail email addresses that are unique for each carrier. Here is a small list;

Alltel
[insert 10-digit number] @message.alltel.com
AT&T
[insert 10-digit number] @txt.att.net
Boost Mobile
[insert 10-digit number] @myboostmobile.com
Sprint
[insert 10-digit number] @messaging.sprintpcs.com
T-Mobile
[insert 10-digit number] @tmomail.net
US Cellular
[insert 10-digit number] @email.uscc.net
Verizon
[insert 10-digit number] @vtext.com
Virgin Mobile
[insert 10-digit number] @vmobl.com
