To send a text message to an AT&T phone number via email, follow these steps:
a. Open your email client or website and create a new email message.
b. In the "To" field, enter the recipient's phone number followed by the AT&T messaging domain. For example, if the recipient's phone number is 555-123-4567, the email address would be 5551234567@txt.att.net.
c. In the message body, type your text message.
d. Click "Send" to send the email.
e. Also, it's important to keep the message length in mind, as some carriers may not support long messages. AT&T supports up to 160 characters per message, so if your message is longer than that, it may be split into multiple messages.
