FOUND WAY TO SEND MMS (PICS)

I didn't know this, but a friend showed me a way to send a picture as a text from your iPhone to another AT&T phone. This might be old news, but new for me.

(1) Select picture you want to send.
(2) Hit icon that brings up E-mail pic
(3) In the( TO: )space type the ten digit phone number you want to send pic to and put the following at the end @mms.att.net
(4) Should look like this 1234567890@mms.att.net
(5) Then Send

The picture will show up on there phone instantly as a text not an e-mail. Then they open it like a normal text pic. Tried this several times, sending pics to wifes blackjack. Worked like a charm.

Any of us, even you, could use your favorite search engine and find them in a minute or two. Why don't you, and post it for the rest of us?

I tried this 3 times now, sent it to myself and I'm not getting any text. Pulled up a pic, hit email pic, typed in my phone # area code first and sent it and I still haven't got any text.

first, are you adding @mms.att.net after your number? if so, it wouldnt work anyway cuz the iphone cannot receive MMS. if you put in your number@txt.att.net, and just sent yourself a normal text (no pic), you should receive it.

i_Jamesy,
have someone you know that uses ROGERS, TELUS and VIRGIN MOBILE to send a picture from their cell phone to your email address instead of your phone number, you will see their cell's "email address", once you have that use the @whateveritis.com with other numbers that use those carriers

You don't have to "memorize" the carrier or number for your friends. Just ask them to send you an MMS to your email address. When it comes in, add the "from" address to "an existing contact", the person who sent it to you, and then add it as a new email address. I use a custom label of "mms" for that email address label, so that when I go to send an MMS to that person, I just start typing their name, then pick the one that is their MMS labeled entry.

I've tried what's listed for Rogers Canada (10digitnumber@pcs.rogers.com) and my friend only received the text, no picture was attached.... Does anyone knows how to get this working on Rogers Canada?
