Question
i have a lg verizon phone ,sent text to my email,but they dont show who sent them,only had my number on it and date i sent.how can i get the full text,time and sender on my computor to print out?

Answer
There are some devices (like BlackBerrys) that would allow you to forward a text message as an email and will include the detail. It sounds like what you forwarded was not the actual text. If you take a text that you received and then choose to forward it as an email, you should get this info. If this still doesn't work for you, then unfortunately your phone is not capable of forwarding with this information in it. You could try forwarding it as an MMS message and see if that changes the way it displays also. I hope this helps. Thanks. DebiN
