Hi all,
Has anyone found a good solution for easily texting a group of people? I
know you can create a texting group on certain phone models but I'd
rather have it so you only need one telephone number entry in your
phone's contact list that you have to text to that distributes the
message out to a handful of people? I tried going the mailing list route
where you send an email (instead of a text) and the mailing list
distributes a copy of the message to a special address that gets
converted to a text (each carrier has their own email address
convention) but different carriers handled replying to that text
different and it got confusing.
Thanks for any suggestions!
