Now you can send and receive your
Emails via sms without an Internet
Connection as Google launches Gmail
SMS in Nigeria, Kenya and Ghana. IMG: gmail_sms_icon.png(36.87 KB) Google has launched Gmail SMS, a
simple service that allows Nigerians,
Ghanaians and Kenyans send and
receive e-mails as SMS messages using
their mobile phone regardless of
whether or not their phones are connected to the Internet. This service
will proove to be extremely useful in
these three countries given the often
spotty state of Internet connectivity
in many parts. Gmail SMS works on any
phone including basic phones that only support voice and SMS. The service
automatically forwards users e-mails
as SMS text messages to their phones.
They can respond to the e-mails by
responding directly to the SMS.
Receiving Gmail SMS is free of charge. Standard SMS rates apply when
replying to messages, creating new
messages and sending Gmail SMS
commands from your phone. HOW IT WORKS “Gmail SMS automatically forwards your emails as
SMS text messages to your phone and
you can respond by replying directly
to the SMS,” says Geva Rechav, Product
Manager of Emerging Markets at
Google. “You can control the emails received by replying with commands
such as MORE, PAUSE and RESUME.
Additionally, compose a new email as
an SMS and send to any email address
recipient – who will find your message
in the right email conversation thread.” So, how do you set yourself up with
Gmail SMS? First of all, you’ll need to
log-in to your Gmail account, and click
on your profile at the top of the page
and then hit Account. Next, you’ll have
to access your settings in the “Phone and SMS” section
