SMS to Email

Turn every incoming SMS into an email

Missed texts on a device nobody checks cost time. SMS to Email turns every incoming text into a message your team actually sees, with no separate phone to keep an eye on.

SMS to Email: Turn every incoming SMS into an email in your inbox

Read texts in your email

Every incoming SMS lands in the inbox your team already checks, so no message stays unread on the device.

You know who wrote and when

The email shows the sender’s number, their name from the phonebook, the time and the full text of the SMS.

Easy to find in your inbox

The email subject can include the sender’s number or the start of the message, so texts are easy to sort and search.

SMS to Email: FAQ

SMSEagle forwards incoming SMS or MMS to an email address, either a fixed address for all messages or automatically to the email of the user who last sent an SMS to that number through SMSEagle. Emails are sent through the SMTP server set in Settings > Channels > Email > SMTP Configuration, so configure and test it first.

Yes. Use a fixed subject or placeholders for the sender number and a preview of the message text.

The sender’s phone number (and contact name if found in the phonebook), the date and time received, and the full SMS message.

Yes. Add multiple rules, each with its own trigger conditions, forwarding mode, and email address. The To email of last sending user option also takes a default address, used when nobody has sent an SMS to that number through SMSEagle yet.

Yes. On multi-modem devices, each rule can be scoped to a single modem, so you control exactly which SIM triggers forwarding.

SMS to Email is a built-in feature available on all current SMSEagle hardware SMS gateways.
