Epistolary is the word you’re looking for! I love epistolary stories. Letters from Camp is a wonderful book! Dear Dragon is fun too. Have you seen The Gardener by Sarah Stewart? Of course another classic is Click, Clack, Moo by Doreen Cronin, though the letters don’t go through the mail in that one.
Oooh I haven't- I'll pick those up! I've always been surprised we haven't had any text message or email type stories- maybe that'll be the next frontier!
Text messages could certainly be incorporated into an epistolary story, within reason. I’ve seen them used to a certain extent in fiction, and they can get tiresome pretty quickly. LOL
