Trying to open a new "@sbcglobal.net" email account

I've been trying for much of the day to create a new email account under the "SBC Global" client name, but have been having some trouble in doing so. I even had a Live Chat with an AT&T agent, hoping he could walk me through it, but he wasn't as much help as I would have hoped. Basically, I was given the option to go with an "@att.com" account, or an "@yahoo.com" account, but for some odd reason, not "@sbcglobal.net" despite having three email accounts under that domain name.

Is AT&T not offering that client name for emails anymore? Or is there a way I can register a new account with that address of which I am currently unaware? I would prefer to stick with "@sbcglobal.net" for the new account, as it is easier for me to keep track of all y accounts if they happen to come from the same client.

Thanks in advance for whatever help you can give me!
