You can't.  AT&T eliminated the ability to create "legacy" accounts ages ago.  Existing accounts were grandfathered and allowed to remain.  At this point the only AT&T accounts you can create at @att.net and @currently.com.

But before you do, please take a look at the massive issues facing all AT&T accounts by looking at the list of posts in this forum.  Seeing that, I have no idea why anyone would consider diving into that steaming pile when you have lots of other email providers to choose from.
