Here's an example of similar troubles involving the iPhone:

These users are not as "ecstatic" as some others. And you'll notice in the thread that many of them are having the same problems reported here. That is, sending PictureMail by emailing to 10digits@service-etc does NOT work reliably, especially with Verizon recipients. It's dramatically slower than "standard" PictureMail. Pictures are frequently bounced with no reasonable explanation. You need to know the recipient's service provider. And more.

I've now tested a dozen pictures using "Picture Forwarding" and it seems to work perfectly. It's a little more work than I would like, but not a show-stopper. See my earlier messages in this thread.

well what i do is send tha pic to my sprint.pm account then when i recive the pic on my mogul i open tha pic and then forward it to any number i chose to its a long stupid process but it gets tha job done hope this help even tho we wish it was an alternative but a sprint guy said i can send a pic by putting in there number.pm.sprint or something like that which sux sux major balls............. peace pimp juice

i tried using this and it only sends a text message .. no picture, any thoughts ?

What do i send the picture to if they have Virgin Mobile in Canada??

i tried the pic mail fowarding method to send mms to Telus carrier but it just send the txt not the picture, are there any other methods? does anyone know Telus MMS address? all i could find was sms address (###@msg.telus.com)

Sprint MMS Workaround (For Now)
 

In case any of you don't know already these instructions should help to anyone who needs to send pictures to other carriers as well. Yes, it's sort of a pain, but it works for now.

Step 1. Set up an email address, for outgoing mail put smtp.sprint.com and check the require authentication box. set it for 15 minutes or to your liking.

Step 2. Find out the carriers from your contacts. (sprint, verizon, t-mobile, etc...)

The hard way Ive been able to figure out only 4 of the major carriers email format, which in miami there is only 5 ... here they go..

Sprint:
10digitphone#@pm.sprint.com

Verizon:
10digitphone#@vzwpix.com

Cingular:
10digitphone#@mms.mycingular.com

T-Mobile:
10digitphone#@tmomail.net

Alltel:
10digitphone#@message.alltel.com

Step 3. compose a new email, send it to your contact which has the following format and when is sent, it will either be sent in 15 minutes or press right soft key, send/receive to send it right away... the user will receive it the same way they always have...

Or If Ur On Sprint Which We're The Only Fargin Ppl That Can't Do Mms, Just Email It To Urself & Then All U Have To Do Is Forward To The Number Of Whom U Want It To Go To Keeping U From Trying To Remember Who's On What Carrier & The Address As Well...

Are you trying to send Videos or Just Pictures?

I love this method, but for some reason WM6 (or 6.1) does not allow you to forward these messages. ](*,)

Why must something so simple, be so damn complicated!! :protest:

This makes things a lot easier. Thanks a lot.
