How to Email an AT&T Customer at Their Cell Phone
Many large cell phone carriers such as Verizon and AT&T allow customers to send and receive email on their cell phone. You might be able to send an email with a picture attachment, if the AT&T customer has a cell phone capable of receiving picture files. Unlike sending an email to an AT&T customer from your cell phone, sending an email from a computer allows you to send a message free of charge.
