Receiving messages via email
These settings will forward messages from your Esendex Inbox to either an email address of your choice or if using Echo for Email, back to the original email sender of the SMS message. Further information about how you can activate these settings can be found below.
Email forwarding option
The Email forwarding option will forward received messages from your inbox to an email address. You can enter either a single or comma separated string of addresses for this service.
To activate this feature, simply write in an email address in the box provided. If you would like to forward your messages to multiple addresses simply write each address as a comma separated list, like in the example below:
user1@company.com, user2@company.com, user3@company.com, user4@company.com
Remember to save any new changes you make using the save button displayed on this screen.
Direct reply option
This option will only work if you are currently using our Email to SMS services. It is useful if you would prefer to match any replies with the original sender of your sent sms messages. The direct reply option works by storing the originating email address used to send a message to a mobile number. Once that mobile number responds to your message, it will forward the reply back to the email address you sent the text from.
To enable direct reply, tick the box on the direct reply screen and save your changes. If you have multiple accounts please select the account you would like this change to apply to first.
If you want to use a service that allows you to control sending and receiving sms directly from your email account we strongly recommend this option.
