I've never been able to receive text messages on my Ooma VOIP number,

How does one do that?  Email to the phone number?  Nope.  "Messages"
tried but failed.
 
Anything?

 
Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I wanted to try sending a text message from my
cell TO my Ooma VOIP number.  I'll try emailing ###@ooma.com and see
what happens.

Can't you just use your cell to SMS your Ooma number +1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx like
any other cellphone number?

You can. These should be up to date:

 
Thanks, this is useful information.

To send from your Ooma number, it's possible they also provide a web page or
mobile app that allows sending SMS with their system.  Although maybe you
need to be on their business package, I don't know.
