Provide more info. What ROM are you using? When did the problems start? Etc...
it started when i first got the phone with the stock rom and also on my current Touch X 10.9.1 rom. i also had this problem when i had a tytn2 but i never was able to fix it
Can you even access your email via POP3/IMAP from a free Yahoo account. It's been my understanding that you need to upgrade to Yahoo Mail Plus.
well i can send and revieve fine on my ipod touch with the same accounts so i guess its possible. I can recieve i just cant send. maybe i need to change the incoming and outgoing settings?

Does anyone know if there's a way to enable sending emails via the SMS app on the 8125 (without using 36245 as the email address)? If you try to send an SMS to an email (not a phone number), the app tells you it's not allowed. Several of us would like to be able to "chat" via sms with people on BlackBerries (for example) or 2-way pagers that aren't addressable as cell phones. Most other phones allow this, but Cingular has disabled it on the 8125. It certainly works on Cing treos. Doesnt work on 8125 with orig ROM or Summiter's excellent ROM upgrade.
Anyone know if this is a registry edit, or would it require a seperate program? Anyone able and willing to post a solution?
omg i just realized it's not letting me send sms to email addresses either >< I used to use send sms to emails all the time on my treo too >< ahhhh ~ any fixes please

You can always send MMS to email addresses with just text.
I'm curious in today's age why you need to send SMS to email addresses, probably same reason MSFT didn't include it. Can you elaborate more??
There is cross operability with all carriers for text messages so you can just put in the phone number of any mobile device and it'll work.
All Blackberries that are less than 3 years old support SMS over the phone # assigned.
I understand the issue for 2-way pagers but why can't you just send a quick email?
There's a need for SMS to 2-way pagers because sending an SMS is faster to create and send...since email requires a logon and data connection. SMS is the easier way to go if you want to "chat"
Send an SMS to 121
The first thing in the body of the message should be the e-mail address with the subject immediately after, in parentheses. Then a space, then your message. Example: to send an e-mail to [email protected] with a subject of 'billing question' and the body 'Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill' you would send the following to 121
[email protected](billing question) Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill
Voila!

I won't speak for the original poster, but I'll elaborate with my reason: I'm not an email/internet/IM junkie, and I don't need all that for work, so I don't have a data plan for my 8125 in order to use the real email capability. But, I do have the 100 SMS msg pack on my plan, and I occasionally need to send a quick email to someone when I'm away from the computer and only have my phone. I used this capability on my Nokia6800 all the time, and apparently the Nokia software took care of the special formatting, since all I had to do on it was type in (or select from Contacts) the email address, the subject, and the message. When I started searching today on this issue, I hoped there was a more elegant solution, but I'm perfectly happy with the instructions for a specially formatted SMS message (as long as I can remember them when I need to send an email). I just figured out that I can copy/paste an email address from Contacts, which I suppose will be better than trying to rember one and having to type it, so that's not too bad.
If I really needed to use email a lot from my phone, I guess I'd give in and pay for a data plan, but for now, this SMS trick works just fine.
Edit: almost forgot to say thanks to Hosehead for the tip. Much obliged.

Using Cingular this did not work...
Worked just fine through Cingular for me when I tried it this afternoon. The email I received looked just like the ones I used to send with my Nokia.
Has worked fine for me since I got my 8125. I recommend making sure you have a new "3G" sim, I know some of the older ones restricted SMS e-mail.
It works for me!
I sent the first test to my work e-mail. Apparently the SPAM filters didn't like it.
Second test to personal e-mail worked like a charm. This is nice to know.
well holy shi** i didn't even know you could do that. it had never even crossed my mind that SMS connected to e-mail
brilliant, johnson. brilliant!
I've sent email with mine through text before...
I was messing around with it when I setup my gmail account to forward me emails through text...
not working for me..
Hmm.. this is not working for me on Tmobile with an MDA.. Has anyone had any success with tmobile?
I don't have a texting plan or a data plan, however i do have wifi. So i was wondering if anybody knew of a program for pocket pc that lets you send and receive texts through data, rather than sms. I know i don't have wifi everywhere, but it's better than nothing. Thanks
Nobody? Any way?

To my knowledge there isn't a program that does that, and there won't be.
You can setup an imer to send instant messages. The only way to send txt messages is through a texting plan with your cell provider.
with some providers, you can send an email to the recipient and it will go through as an sms. or you can use this

but, of course, it's an sms. Something the original poster was trying to avoid.
You paid about $400 for the phone, just fork up the $5 a month for a text plan. I pay $8 for unlimited txts.
Yea i tried the emailing method and it wasn't reliable at all. O well, thanks for the help. If anybody knows anything else, then please say it, thanks.
I don't pay for unlimited texts. I get them for free.
the e-mail thing is great, but they cant reply to them reliably.. and if they do, they do it as an SMS...
SMS's are great because just about all phones can do them.. beyond that you will need to be chatting with other friends with smartphones, and find software that lets you do it by a data connection (Doesn't Blackberry connect do that?)
u can email a phone number(u would send from your email, and i would recieve it as an sms) as long as u know that cell company's email address... ex. for at&t my cell's email is [email protected] then it comes in just like an SMS message. each carrier should have this option...

Hi
Is there an app that allows you to send and recieve txtx from the G1 through the PC ?. I have a nokia and use pc suit to send and recieve txt through pc at work. Just wanted to know if you can do something the same on G1/Android ?
Google Voice. Get an invite, setup a new number, and send text messages through "voice.google.com" with that new number.
just use an email address?? I send/recieve texts from the wifey all the time from exchange. although it would be awesome if there was a program to redirect all incoming texts to an email address so if someone were trying to get ahold of me, i'd know now and not 8 to 16 hours later. (prisons don't allow cell phones.)

I thought about posting this earlier.... there's a huge downfall to it: getting people to actually text that new number.

I could see the difficulty in that lol.
Although, what I did was go to "contacts.google.com" and create a group of all the people I text on a regular basis. Downloaded "Contacts GroupU" from the market, then re-sync'd my contacts. Opened up Contacts GroupU, long pressed the group name and selected "Send SMS." Finally, notified them of the new number.
I have a problem with my googlemail app.
I can recive Emails, handy even rings before my pc shows me that i have a new email.
but if i want to send an email, it gets stuck on sending email status for days and doesnt send the mail.
I reflashed a few roms the last days, but the problem stays.
any ideas?
edit: wrong section i guess this should be in app section sorry, someone can move it?
