But in the meantime, has anyone had any luck with putting in the full address of the intended phone you are trying to text? It's working right now with a friend of mine on Verizon.

just add @vtext.com to the phone number (for verizon, duh) or @tmomail.com for tmobile, etc.... in the Text Messages account of the messaging app and it will go through.

Incoming messages are treated like emails, and the double display of the SMS is just the "Subject" and "Message" fields with the same information in them.

ok, so Verizon uses phonenumber@vtext.com
and T-Mo uses phonenumber@tmomail.com

and to ease the pain of typing in all the addresses when i want to send an SMS, i saved my most common texters in contacts (phonenumber@vtext.com) as an email address and then selected under the options, Address tab, In Contacts, get email addresses from - "All email fields"

Then when you type a contact name, select the "@vtext.com" or "@tmomail.com" address and send the text.

i've tried the @tmomail and the texts dont seem to go thru. i keep getting a mailer daemon type reply.
