I get e-mail to my phone. A regular e-mail works great. However, if someone else is shipping to you, UPS would still need to know your carrier to send the e-mail. Also, some people don't have unlimited text messages like me. After I sign up at UPS, yes, I could use that e-mail, but there is no point. I get e-mail to my phone. A regular e-mail works great.

They usually hand-deliver it to me. These are the same people that believe Twitter/Facebook/blogs are critical tools they need to figure out how to use for their big/dumb/slow company to be on the "cutting" edge. The way their companies get on the "cutting edge", is by hiring people that don't think like them. How about E-mails to phone? My carrier gives me an E-mail address that basically SMSes my phone.

And I'm guessing they don't because they would need to know my carrier, and the contact phone may not even be able to receive SMS. They can't get that info from the phone number. However, I can sign up at UPS and put the tracking number with my account and receive e-mails about the status of my package. People have done that to me at work, btw.

That's like printing an E-mail, writing your response in pen, and rescanning it to send it back! Why the h*** doesn’t UPS just send you an SMS?
