The phone I am having issues with is an M600i

It gives me an error saying

"Incorrect addresses or unable to send to specified address using this server"

I'm using the same settings for incoming and outgoing that I use for outlook and it works fine for that, but it won't send using the phone. I can receive email but can't send. If anyone has any ideas as to what I need to do in the settings please feel free to reply. Thanks guys

this is an age old problem...

unfortunately very few SMTP servers allow you to use them unless you are actually connected to the ISP in some way, which you are not when using your phone. This is to prevent the SMTP server being used for spam.

you need to use an SMTP server supplied by your mobile service provider

SMTP Server: myemail.t-mobile.com

Yup, that's the one I just finished setting up. It now works flawlessly.

Masseur: Man, you got everything covered, I appreciate the help.
