This article explains how to send an email from a computer to a mobile phone in the form of an SMS. You can do this by entering the recipient's mobile number in the "To" field of the e-mail, followed by the address of the server of the telephone company that manages the e-mails. At this point you will simply have to write the text of your e-mail. It should be noted that, in most cases, the maximum length limit of an SMS is 160 characters (in some cases even less) and many managers do not support sending MMS in this way (therefore it will not be possible to enter multimedia contents within the text of the e-mail).
Steps
Part 1 of 2: Trace the Recipient's Address
Step 1. Log in to the Email2SMS website
Visit the URL https://email2sms.info/ using your computer's internet browser. You will need to use this website to find the domain of the email address to which to send your message. The domain of an e-mail address is the portion of text that appears after the "@" symbol.

- In this case it is not necessary to perform a precise search, you can use both capital letters and lowercase letters to enter the manager's name; however, you will need to type the exact name of the handler even if it contains special symbols.
Step 7. Look at the "Gateway" entry
The address displayed under "Gateway" and characterized by the following format "number @ domain" corresponds to the address that you must enter in the "To" field of your e-mail.
- You may need to scroll down the page to locate the "Gateway" entry for the operator you are looking for.
