I need a portable solution to send and receive the emails without using an
expensive cellular internet connection. I can't use a web service if I do
not have a cellular internet connection.
I want to have a computer with basically the same functionality as a human:
1. Get a short text message in real-time
2. Send a short text message in real-time to a monitored email address.
Thanks,
Johnnie
