Sprint will no longer let us use smtp.sprintpcs.com after 12/31/08 to send email
I have had the same issues many of you have had with sending and receiving email. THis goes all the way back to my I500.
I can dowload mail using POP3 but I CAN'T send mail.
The workaround has always been to use smtp.sprintpcs.com and use my vision username and password.
I just got off the phone with Sprint. They are sutting down this option tomorrow 12/31/2008!
Everything was working normally until I had to reconfigure a replacement phone I got about a week or so ago. I noticed a few days ago that there were a number of emails in my outbox. I thought maybe I had missed typed something so I doubled checked everything. TO make sure I had my correct vision password I called Spring that is when I found out the bad news.
I emailed my ISP and I hope he can help. Otherwise I might have to route all my outgoing mail through Gmail.
Any thoughts on other SMTP servers to use other than Sprint?
I have Bellsouth (ATT) DSL at my home office but I couldn't get those SMTP settings to work.
