 I don't know.  It worked the other day for me.  Here's the complete list 
 from wiki:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways

To follow up on this, I sent two emails this morning to my phone, one to 
each of the addresses.  The mms message came through about 5 mins after I 
sent it.  The txt address message came through about an hour and 15 mins 
after I sent it.  But both did come through.

Thanks for the wiki address relating to this!

10digit_number at txt.att.net worked.  I received it within minutes after
sending it using (Google) gmail.com.

Maybe the reason for your delay was your smtp relays?  Might not have been your
person relay, but another one in between (ie. Big city)

Who knows.  I just tried both addresses now and they both came right 
through.

Sorry for the additional email.  Forgot to add this:

The mms address preserved my from email address.  The txt address did not - 
the txt I received on my phone was from 1-410-000-002 and it also had From: 
Tim Gray in the body of the text message.

Nope.  Doesn't work here.

Thanks Tim. That worked, but I received my test text as an mms
message, instead of just txt.. but 'num...@txt.att.net' didn't work..
I just hope in sending an mms message I am not billed differently.

Don't know.  I do know that they txt address used to work, but recently my 
brother texted my email address by accident and it came through with the mms 
address instead.


We have unlimited texting and mms'ing, so it doesn't really matter for us. 
Hope you don't get hit with a silly bill.
