Try sending the e-mail address: at at att.net...<G>. 

All of the characters on the keyboard have Morse equivalents defined by the
ITU to avoid confusion. 

I guess that's why we're confused.

The & may have originated in American Morse, but the ITU recognizes it as
the prosign 'ES'.

Good Grief Folks!   At (@) is simple di-dah dah :)   I wondered why they 
made it so complicated when the entire word is much shorter.

By the way: the AND sign comes from American Morse.  It is truly a single 
character with one of those odd length spaces rife in American Morse.
