Author sending email to mobile

What is the email address to use if you want to send a text message to a ATT
cell phone? I've tried number@txt.att.net but it nevers goes through and I
get a delivery failure problem when the email bounces back.

That is the correct gateway address.
What is the failure code and message?
Have you tried NUMBER@cingularme.com ?

This is what I get back. I get the same thing when I send to the
cingularme.com address.

The mail is being sent via Outlook. No other mail problems.

The following addresses had delivery problems:



<xxxxxxxxxx@txt.att.net>

Permanent Failure: Other address status

Delivery last attempted at Tue, 12 Jun 2007 13:49:13 -0000

That error means something is wrong with the address.
Check for subtle errors.
Can you send email to other AT&T/Cingular mobiles?
Does the subscriber have SMS messaging turned off?
Can you send to that gateway from other mail services?

Or maybe a message forwarding feature is active?
