(keitai-l) Re: au Cmail: forwarding address

If that's true, that's rather disappointing.  I would really like to have a 
way to send Cmail to my phone from a computer.  It would also be convenient 
for my friends (and cheaper for me), who use Jphone and Docomo... it would 
give them a way to text msg me (still costing them money, but not me) and 
prevent me from having to receive costly email.

Are there any web gateways or otherwise that allows messages to be entered 
and sent as Cmail?  Any other ideas?

Thanks,

- Lance F.
