Telstra .. Sending Email on 6600?

Is there anything special to send emails on this? size limits or anyting?

I got the settings sent from www.nokia.com.au, accepted all fine, I can
download and read emails, but when i send one, it activates GPRS, says GPRS
connection established, flashes the G icon for a few seconds, then
disconects GPRS again, and the email sits in my outbox marked "pending". If
I choose "Send now" on it, it repeats the above, and goes back to pending ..

Anyone know why?

Thanks!

Yes. Your SMPT (Sendmail) server. This is best set to your PHONE network
provider's SMTP server, not your ISP/e-mail provider's SMTP. Check this with
your phone network provider. In theory you can use any SMTP server anywhere,
however many mailservers do not allow sending from addresses that aren't in
the same domain/company/isp.

It is .. mail.bigpond.com .. Telstra's ISP's email server .. this was
configured by nokia.com.au's sending system that sent out the settings ..

Hi,
Try this. Send a SECOND email. Then you'll notice the first one gets
sent (but the second one sits in the outbox). Now send yet another
email.... the same thing happens. The most recent email NEVER sends.

Telstra considers this a "known bug" of the Nokia 6600
The Sydney Nokia support line have never heard of it, and haven't
called me back about it since I reported it.

Please add your complaint to mine - call Nokia and let them know.
