    Excuse me if this is in the wrong location.

    I’ve been having an intermittent problem for a few years now. Every once in a while I am unable to send a text to a cell phone via my email. This is regardless of the phone carrier I’m sending it to. I will receive the following message:

    The phone companies blame the Email services. The Email services blame the phone companies, and the problem still exists. I searched out and tried every possible solution I could find and nadda. Also, it appears many people have this same problem. Does anyone here have a solution that works?

    Only 4 US carriers use an address with mms.something.net
    AT&T, USCellular, Cricket Wireless and FirstNet
    If you are sending to a cell phone that doesn't use one of those carriers, look up the correct address here

    If mms fails, have you tried sms?
