Windows 10: Forwarding text messages with the your phone app

I have Your Phone installed with Windows 10, I just installed the latest update and was hoping it would include an option to forward messages. I am still not seeing it, it seems unlikely that Microsoft would skip such a basic feature, so I am wondering if I am just not finding the option. I know I can copy and paste information from one message to the next, however, when images, links or attachments are involved, I often receive a disclaimer about loss of quality or content due to limitations. So my question is; is there a forward option in Your Phone and if so, please tell me where to find

:)

 

How do I forward text messages, both as text and email?

Hello Edsv77, When you have a text that you want to forward you can tap/hold on the text message.

The options - delete & forward will be available. You can forward to a phone number or email address.

• When I forward the text to an email from my ATT WP7 it shows - *** Email address is removed for privacy *** <- X's would be a real phone number.
  
• When you forward the text it will show your phone number forwarded the text.

Thanks for your post! ChrisM

 

How to send an email that a phone receives as a text?

At my office, we want to have the ability to communicate with our electricians who are fairly low tech people. They don't check emails often, but text messaging would work fine for our need. I know with Verizon and Sprint you can using the text messaging app on the phone to text an email, and then if you reply to say L: 9995724770@VTEXT.COM that email will go to the phone as a text message.

Short of having all the electricians text an email to get these addresses, is there an easier way to go about this? I've never really dealt with mass texting before. Is say a Droid phone capable of sending a text to 40 people?
