Sending Email to SMS

Sending Email to SMS

Send SMS from your email in addition to the touchSMS Platform. In order to use Email to SMS, ensure it is enabled in your touchSMS account, to confirm this see our article Enabling Email to SMS.

1. Open your email and click New Email.

2. In the To field type the recipient’s mobile number followed by @touchsms.email

eg 0410111111@touchsms.email

3. Type your message in the email body.

Tip: 160 Characters = 1 SMS = 1 message part. Maximum Message Parts is set to 4 by default, to safeguard email to SMS usage. You can increase/decrease the Maximum Message Parts in Email to SMS Settings.

4. Once you have composed your message click Send.

NOTE: If replies are enabled they will be sent to the original email sender and visible in your touchSMS account. To update your Email to SMS Sender ID click here.

When sending EmailSMS, please ensure that you remove any signatures/graphics/disclaimers from the message body. A quick and easy solution is to add #END# to the end of your message. This will automatically remove any content after this point without the need to manually remove.
