When I send a text message to my SO phone from my Yahoo account, i get the following message

"Your message to XXXXX could not be delivered because their Mobile Phone cannot receive text messages at this time."

Does anybody else have this problem?

Yep I do too. I think it's because the SO system doesn't support short code SMS messages. I had 1 go through from Yahoo and then I got another SMS on the phone saying I had to reply to a short code to verify the phone (or something like that).

Here's a link to something that might help if we could sent to SMS to short codes.

Thank-you for the information.
Still doesn't work for me. Can't sent short code over SO
