| My girlfriend recently replied to a text message I sent her, and when I
received the reply in my Inbox, it came back with <somename>@vtext.com
instead of <hernumber>@vtext.com. I don't have Verizon, but she does
and I received this reply on my Blackberry. Not wanting to jump to
conclusions, I wanted to ask someone here how that could happen.
Thanks in advance :)

She was in bed with her old boyfriend when she sent it and used his phone?

| Assuming you're not being a smart-aleck, she wouldn't have received the
text Isent HER on HIS phone . . . correct?

Can you spell call/text forwarding, boys and girls?

That is a feature of a vtext.com account: let's one set up an alias like
that so the phone number is not "given away" to anyone who receives text
messages from it. The alias is a perfectly valid email address for her
phone to receive text messages (assuming she DID set it up on her
vtext.com account??).

what conclusions are you attempting to avoid jumping to?
