Receiving texts from sender: [email protected]
Recently in the middle of text messaging exchanges, one additional sender appeared in me and my spouse text conversation. It's address had my spouses first name with some additional letters and address ending MSG.telus.com. Is it someone else injecting themselves into our ... chat suddenly? Who is ... MSG.telus.com anyways...?
Could someone explain this, please?
Thank you

Hi Andrzej - we have a system where if you send an email to the recipient [email protected] and you put a phone number in that blank space, we will send a text message to that phone number.
Think of it as an "email-to-text" system.
Thanks for your response FuzzyLogic, and for the the link to the post. I've read all that and from all the replies I couldn't find definite answer to my ... situation. I was in the middle of text messaging exchange with my spouse. We had only ourselves in the ... chat - one sender one receiver, and vice versa. In the middle of our texting... another address join on my spouses side of conversation - it had his name with additional 3 letters and MSG.telus.com. He was in the same spot all time, I was not moving neither... It felt like some THIRD party jumped into our text message exchange. That was pretty strange... It lasted for few minutes and it disappeared from our chat.

My understanding is that these are a result of Telus' email to SMS conversion. This post may offer some additional information:
