@mms.att.net and @txt.att.net Address Not Found Message

Hi hottytoddyms, we are here to help with your Email to Text Messaging concern!

To send an email as a text message to an AT&T wireless number:

• Text message - Compose a new email and enter the recipient's 10-digit wireless number, followed by @txt.att.net. For example, 5551234567@txt.att.net.
• Picture or video message - Compose a new email and enter the recipient's 10-digit wireless number, followed by @mms.att.net. For example, 5551234567@mms.att.net.

Also, the sender has to make sure:

• The mobile addresses/phone numbers are valid and not blocked.
• Confirm your AT&T Wireless coverage, since we need signal to send/receive messages.
• Check your email server or Internet connection
  • AT&T can't troubleshoot a customer's email server or Internet connection that is not AT&T.

Let us know if this helps! Thank you for posting on the AT&T Community Forums!

Works for me, both MMS & SMS gateways. Sent from GMail if that makes a difference.

That probably means either the numbers you are trying to text from email are not ATT customers or they have had texts from email blocked.

Neither of those is the case, but thanks for trying to help!

So are there any recommendations for those of us who have relied on this valuable feature for years? By forwarding job leads and new customer inquiries to my [email scrubbed] they came across as texts and received my immediate attention. Now, I'm missing emails and appointment requests from new and existing clients.

It worked for over a decade, and it's still working for some AT&T customers from what I see above. What changed, and how can I fix it?

Thank you.
