Your cell phone email address will most likely be your 10-digit number + carrier's email]. Add your cell phone email address as the forwarding address. In the new window, enter your forwarding criteria (e.g., if you want all emails from your boss forwarded as SMS, enter his/her email in the From box), then select the "Forward it to" checkbox and click on the "Add a new forwarding address" link.
In Gmail, go to Settings > Filters and click the link "Create a new filter" at the bottom. In Gmail, you can create a filter than sends certain emails to your cell phone number's associated email address. Yahoo! and Hotmail, for example, have settings where you can enter your mobile phone number and get alerts for either all emails or just specific ones. Most email providers and clients allow you to either send text alerts to your cell phone or forward emails to another address. (When my power was out during Hurricane Sandy and data connection on my cell phone wasn't happening, I was still able to use SMS-and with these forwarding rules, emails from my critical contacts came in as text messages.) This is also handy when you just want to stay out of your crowded inbox but get important emails via text messages on your phone-wherever you are and whether or not you have a good internet connection. You can end this agony and be notified as soon as your desired email response comes in with a simple email-to-SMS forwarding rule. A few minutes later, refresh again with still no luck. Waiting for an important email to come in is a true test of patience.
