    While I don't have a solution (and am not very good at solving these kinds of things) could you be more specific with the trouble you are experiencing?

    -Have you ever been able to send e-mails from the phone?
    -Did the issues come with a firmware update or always present?
    -Did you verify the information for outgoing mail from the mail configuration information?
    -Do you have your user name and password as part of the configuration for the outgoing mail setting? (Oddly this was my initial problem using earthlink mail, turns out it was not optional)

    More info like this will let the good trouble shooters assist you better!

    Sending Email on iPhone

    Thanks for your response to my post. I have always had the problem and I believe it has to do with the outgoing mail configuration. I can't figure out how to view and edit on the phone. Any suggestions you can give will be greatly appreciated.

    For the outgoing mail server try putting cwmx.com no username or password .. that should fix it

    I am assuming that you will be using EDGE to send out emails. If this is the case, then cwmx.com should work. If you are on wifi then you need to use the outgoing server of your service provider.

    There's a BUNCH of settings and such on the Apple site.

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306074

    Maybe one of them will be the answer you're looking for!

    (Keep your fingers crossed)

    I had a problem using Bellsouth, so I went with the Yahoo Mail. It works great no problem and save as the default and it will send pics without a problem.
