ATT Avail email to SMS/SMS to email

[BehindTheCurve]

Hello all. My wife has had an AT&T Avail Smartphone for a few months now and I have always been able to send texts to it via my personal email account using the format xxxxxxxxxx@txt.att.net. This is an unlimited Go Phone account. Just recently a software update came out for the phone and I installed it (not sure if this is applicable). Anyway, I can no longer receive or send texts to the phone via email since then. My other Go Phone works just fine (not a smartphone). I can, however, still send/receive texts directly to and from other cell phones with the Avail. Does anyone have some insight into this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, it depends on the companies, some companies provides this facilities some comapnies may change in future, you may have to pay for email to sms and sms to email services as well.

According to my knowledge there is no free service, and you can use it with any mobile phone with the help of third party, currently I'm using

textmarketer.co.uk/software-partners/

It not only provide email to sms integration but also, it has lots of other features which are really very helpful.
