More about SMS by Email
You can send text messages to any mobile phone in Australia or overseas from your PC. Standard text messages are 160 characters but if your message is longer, we can accommodate 1,440 characters broken into 9 messages. You can also receive responses to your messages straight back to the email address from which you sent the original.  It¡¦s that easy.

When you send a message, the service converts your email message to a sms and sends it to the mobile phone number you have specified. A delivery report is then emailed to you on successful delivery of the message. More information on how to use the sms service can be found here.

Responses to your sms messages are received directly into your inbox and can be filed, printed or deleted. You can now keep proper records of the messages you send and receive. In addition, if the person you are sending the sms to is in your contact list, their name will appear in the received column.

From a business perspective and personal perspective, this means extending your communication capability and also managing these communications properly. Whether you are keeping tabs on the kids, keeping in touch with friends or trying to manage contractors and staff in a business, SMS is a cheap and effective way of messaging and  makes it is easy and manageable.

We understand the importance of getting the message across and as such if you send an Email to sms message that is longer than 160 characters then we will send multiple sms messages for your single email message up to a length of 1440 characters (9 sms messages)..
