Email -> Mobile Phone
Hi

Does anyone know of a good free service that allows your mobile phone to have an email address? I need an email address for people to send txts to my mobile phone over the festive period. I'm based in the UK and my Network operator is Orange.

Cheers

They don't emails to phone, only phone alerts. These are the networks that offers this in the UK (note; orange isn't one of them):

In the end I've signed up with Genie. Thanks anyway.

I was just going to mention Genie.

Beware it can get really annoying when your phone keeps bleeping :)

Hmm actually I may get a genie address. Just need to find my phone :)

Yeah, I'm just setting up an auto-reply for my emails telling people that if the message is urgent then they should page my mobile with a given email address. I shouldn't get that many responses... hopefuly!
