Same thing is happening to me. I changed the DNS server info but it WONT STAY!!! Any help out there?

Does anyone find this installation bogs down the messaging app in general?
The first time I tried using it, I thought my device had locked up.
Any kind of messaging slowed to crawl when using this, and I get a lot of push emails daily so a slow messaging app = lots of frustration for me.

Is it just me, or does anyone else notice this as well?

I uninstalled it and everything runs smoothly again... I wish there was a standalone program that could just be run when we want to send an MMS...
It shouldn't need to be always running in the background and attaching itself / messing with my other messaging options... after all, this doesn't work for incoming (only outgoing), so why does such a thing need to be "integrated"?

Alas, no one has developed such an app to my knowledge...

No it won't!

So here is what you do.

CREATE A NEW connection, call it whatever you want.

All the same as the sprint connection except leave the password blank and add the Open DNS settings. The New connection will stick

Worked like a champ, THX! Was hoping it wouldnt mess up my ActiveSync to the exchange server & it didn't so we're great!

I don't know if this will help anyone else, but I just found out that I don't need this app to send MMS to other sprint phones!

Apparently, if you email a pic attachment to xxxxxxxxxx(phone number)@pm.sprint.com, it will show up on their handset as an MMS.
I don't know if this was covered already, but its news to me so I'd like to mention it here in case anyone was in the same situation.

I have done everything listed on my Sprint Mogul PPC-6800 and I just get a synchronization error when trying to send a pix mail? What am I doing wrong? I used the easy installer and went in the registry to make sure my settings were correct.
