Sometimes for work I get a text message from a mailing list when a server goes down. For some reason I am unable to send a text reply to the email. Is this something I have to do something special for? I have always been able to do it on my old phones (non windows mobile).
that's a carrier feature. You'll have to call them. Probably the old phones were configured for your carrier.

can we be more specific? I'm having a hard time following you.
You get a SMS message from work? or an email?
is it sent to the SMS address on your phone or as an email?
When you reply, are you sending a SMS or an Email? what is the address type that you are replying to?
The devil is in the details....
When the mailing list sends out the messages it sends it to something like my phone number @txt.att.net however when I go to reply with a text message (sms) to the email address that the message was sent from it gives me an error saying "The text message account cannot be used to send email messages"

ok... you are using the email to SMS gateway.
you cannot text message to an email address from your phone.
You can MMS to an email address, try it that way
HOWEVER, if the sms you receive has sending address of a bunch of numbers, it can reply back to the original sender using the sms to email gateway that AT&T (or others) provides.. just reply.. do not change the address.
AT&T is my carrier and I send SMS to email addresses everyday. The email recepient sends their email to me and it shows up in SMS format. When I flashed to a Schaps Rom, I could not do it anymore, so I flashed to another rom (k's 1.30b) and it works just fine. It's a pretty handy feature to have. I am not sure if it is a carrier feature, but I do know not all roms let you do it.
That must be what it is. I am using the TNT rom. I will try another.
Try this one

Hi, I configured my phone with CHT to open up the MS messaging when I tap the SMS icon on the CHT notification bar. If I have the option "show account picker", it will open up to show my SMS and email account. If I don't use that option, it will open to the inbox of whatever account I last had open. Is there a reg edit so that MS messaging will open up to my SMS inbox when it opens?
I use the manila email tab for emails, so that is not an issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Please tell me someone else has had this.
If I compose a text message, then click on the recipient bar, and select a group, all of whom have telephone numbers, I send the text and the delivery report tells me their email boxes recieved it. I was like WTF?!
However, if I go to People, then groups, select the group, select group action, select "Send group message", then it will send as a text (SMS) message.
Obviously one way is quicker and one way is longer.
Anyone else had this?
I'm running Mynn Warm 2.2
I have set up a contact with my email address and phone number as "ME" so i can easily send myself a txt or email for capturing information. I can see the contact in google contacts under My Contacts. I cannot however send an email or txt message to that contact in my messagin app, either default or Handcent, and i cannot send an email to that contact because "ME" doesn't show up as a valid contact when i type ME in the "to" field. Can someone help me figure out how to have my phone recognize ME as a valid contact and be able to send myself txts and emails to this contact?
I'm wondering if it may ahve something to do with the "My Contact Card in the Sense rom???
Just create another contact with your name and info that should work.

Is there any way to set messenger up to always text the "mobile" number listed for a contact? When I pull up messenger and try to send an SMS and type in a contact I see the contact's mobile, work, and home number pop up. How can I set it to just show mobile numbers?
I don't think you can with Google Messenger. Textra has a mobile only option. I'm sure most messaging apps in the Play Store do to.
