AT&T has announced that it will discontinue its email-to-text service on June 17, 2025. This feature allowed users to send text messages to AT&T subscribers directly from an email by addressing the message to the recipient's 10-digit phone number followed by "@txt.att.net" for SMS or "@mms.att.net" for MMS.
The email-to-text service was particularly useful for those who preferred composing messages via email or needed to send texts from devices without traditional texting capabilities. With the rise of smartphones and various messaging apps, the reliance on such services has decreased.
AT&T has not provided specific reasons for ending the service but has indicated that customers will no longer be able to send or receive messages through email-to-text after the June 17th cutoff. Subscribers are encouraged to explore alternative communication methods, such as standard text messaging or third-party messaging applications, to stay connected.
