Yes of course, now since you have a Cingular phone just create a new
SMS message and when it gives you the optiont to chose the recipient
just chose an email address, or enter an email address (yes even to
hotmail, if they use email). Now the return address that shows up when
you send from your phone, is what you would use from your email
(hotmail in your case) to send back an SMS message from email.
