We are a group of hobbyists managing a mailing list. Mailchimp insists on SMS authentication to login now which has scuppered our plans to spread the workload.

Are there any free / cheap services that would receive a text messages and forward it by email to several people? If not, is there an alternative way to deal with this situation? We’re not necessarily attached to mail chimp but delivery is important.

    to take a picture of that QR image

    You really shouldn’t ever be taking a picture of a QR code, you just scan it using the app.

    just share the picture of the QR code with whatever screen/image capture tool you like to use

    No, you share the text key that the QR code represents.

      Beside it’s inefficient to send text data as an image, why does it make a difference?

      When sending the QR, the app can simply read the QR code. When sending text, you and the recipient manually have to copy the information and the recipient also has to paste it into the right field.
