IMO email isn't an easy way to share

Well I dunno about Sprint, but Telus's idea is simply to do it all through email, and lemme tell ya, it ain't easy either... IF it works. Big problem is, it isn't working 90% of the time.
Meanwhile, my wife sends and receives MMS pictures with his KRZR with nary a hiccup.
I did talk to a Telus tech yesterday who seemed to have a clue... at least he knew that Telus's MMS servers use WAP and the smartphones don't have a WAP browser... he seemed genuinely suprised when I told him I had third-party MMS software that used WAP, something that other carriers actually bundled with their phones, and he promised he'd try to get the me the server settings for it.
He also pointed out that Telus's "Snap" site for receiving MMS messages (MMS sent to my number goes into an "inbox" there instead) could be set to automatically forward messages to an email address (or multiple addresses), which seems ALMOST acceptable. Unfortunately when he tried to set it up for me, he found their system for doing so was down... When you first go to log in, you have to enter your number and click and link and it will text you your passwork (which is about 20 characters long). Well the first time I did this on my computer, it took three days to receive the text with the password. I tried it again the other day, logging in from the phone, and it still hasn't sent me the password... four days and counting. I logged in from the computer when I got home and set up the forwarding address, but so far... nothing.
