Device Info> Current username an Email address?
Hello all,
Taking a look around my phone, I came across the "Current Username" on the Device Info screen apperas to be an Email address (@sprintpcs.com). When I send an email to that address I don't receive an NDR (non-delivery receipt) back. Is this an Email address? If so, how do I gain access? Thanks! Matt

I called them up and told them I wanted an email @sprintpcs.com, he agreed the account it shows under power vision is not actually an email but just a username the system used so he asked me what account name I wanted, he typed it in and wham. I had a new email account that was not even tied to an account. At the time I had a data card but it doesnt make a difference. Just call sprint tech support, tell them you need to talk to tier2 about editing/changing your sprintpcs email and they will usually transfer you without any questions. Its like if they have to rebuild your powervision profile you will see like yourname1@sprintpcs.com where it was yourname@sprintpcs.com. This isnt your email just an id for the system. Tier 2 can set you up. |

^ Agreed
The email address is simply your login for your data connection, provided by Sprint for their usage only. They are currently utilizing a RADIUS server that checks the username (email@sprintpcs.com) and password to ensure that your account is allowed to access the Internet per your data agreement. It is the same methodology used for Internet access from a home or office via dial-up or DSL. The only real difference is that the email address from Sprint is used internally and not for our use, where the email address for dial-up/DSL is also an email address that you can utilize.

the reason you don't get a ndr is because it is an actual usable email address you access it by logging into your sprint.com account and on the account overview page look for the my online tools link it's highlighted in the pic below that link will take you to a new page look for pcs mail that's where you'll find it
