Mobile Email?

is Mobile Email included with Messaging Unlimited. the plane that encludes all messaging forms aka IM SMS MMS

 

and by mobile email i mean like in my samsung shg a707 or w/e and my older samsung shg a457 i think.... both had Mobile Email.... and i was just wondering if that neeeds a Data plan or if messaging covers it

 

if not can i send an email to my phone like lets say the adress is  phonenumber@mms.att.net and that be like a mms right? and than i could send lets say a photo from my phone to my email account and it would work fine like that? with no extra charges? this info would be great for i would like to send photos to my phone and send photos from phone to email... but if i can have an added bonus of checking my email VIA mobile email program in samsung phone that would be great.. 

thanks you for any info

Mobile E-mail is NOT INCLUDED in Unlimited Messaging. You would need a DATA plan of some sort to use Mobile E-mail.

 

Yes, you CAN send a photo to your phone using your 10digitnumber@mms.att.net. You can also send a photo from your phone to your e-mail by inserting your e-mail address. There are no extra charges for sending/receiving pics because this would be covered in your Unlimited Messaging plan. However, if you go over the limit, (mine limit is 300kb), you WILL incur extra data charges. I have read on the forum that the size limit for MMS has been changed from 300kb to 600kb but I can not confirm this. It would also depend on your phone's limitations. I keep MMS on my Shine under 300kb to be on the safe side as I have incurred extra data charges once for sending 4 pics in one message, going over my 300kb limit.

 

Hope this helps
