Alltel SMS
If your cellular service provider is Alltel, here's what you need to know about using SMS text messaging with your cell phone. Alltel calls it "Axcess Text Messaging."
Note: The correct spelling is "Alltel," not "Alltell."

- Maximum message length: 200 characters [according to commenter Edward, below].
- What happens to longer messages: Split into a maximum of two 100-character messages.
- Cost per message: 15 cents per message sent or received; 25 cents per picture message. (Messaging packs reduce the cost if you send hundreds of SMS messages per month.)
- For more information: Axcess Text Messaging
- Sending email to your phone: Use the address format: [10-digit phone number]@message.alltel.com
Example: 2125551212@message.alltel.com

I did a little test by sending a message to myself @message.alltel.com. I sent a message of 350 characters. I received the first 200 characters split into two messages of 100 characters each. The rest was lost.
ARE YOU ABLE TO SEND PICTURES USING YOUR METHOD? I HAVE AN IPHONE WITH AT&T AND MY BUDDY HAS ALLTEL. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO SEND HIM A PHOTO USING YOUR METHOD. HE GETS THE TEXT BUT NO PHOTO. LET ME KNOW. THANKS.
