Textmessage to E-Mail forwarding.

Forward your SMS and IM-messages to your E-Mail.
You can select to forward sms only or IM messages only, or both,
and which type of messages - incoming or outgoing, or both.

In extras-devel, bugs and feature requests are welcome.


regards

Brilliant.

My operator allows me to forward all SMS to an e-mail address, at the switch - but this is really great for those who can't.

Curious, what do you use to send the mail? Modest backend or a hand rolled client?

Another great app. May I suggest the name text2mail for this great app?

<edit>Never mind - it sends from the e-mail application, not Conversations. I found it. Super piece of work. Thank you.</edit>
I love the concept. I attempted to do this yesterday and discovered there was no capability available.
  • I downloaded/installed the program from the garage page
  • Rebooted.
  • Found the Textmessage to E-Mail settings line in Settings.
  • I've enabled forwarding for SMS both incoming and outgoing.
  • Selected the appropriate From: e-mail account
  • Filled in the default To: field
  • Pressed Done

When I try to forward an SMS from Conversations I can not figure out how to invoke the send to email address part of this. When I enter an e-mail address in the address line of Conversations Forward pane I receive the "x@y.com is not one of your contacts" error message. I looked in Applications and did not see this was a stand-alone application.

I know it will be very simple and straightfoward once I'm shown but I am missing it at the moment.

@hawaii
Yes it uses modest for sending the mail.
Since the PR 1.2 and Qt we have a plugin in modest
(qtm-modest-plugin) with a better dbus-api for sending
emails.

@Shinigamijim
No, I don't know how you could reply to them by mail.

Re: [Announce] Textmessage to E-Mail forwarding
 
small question, are the forwarded SMSes still being kept in the conversations DB? if so, could they be prevented of doing so ? i'm just thinking of an application I wanted a long time ago already for my N900, having one public and one 'hidden' secret area, receiving all calls/sms to/from a certain blacklist of contacts. but just the forwarding and no storing would be fine as well, as a start.

They are kept in the conversations DB. And you can not
enable/disable forwarding for a single contact.

Great App :-) . Definitely will make the already versatile N900 more versatile.
