Love the Q I suck at all these features. I need help

[Kali Kpone]

First of all. I set up my Yahoo account and I get the e-mails but I cannot reply unless if I go to Yahoo.com from my phone and reply to it. Now i cannot send pictures to anyone. I dont know much about computer stuff so it doesn't help. I see everyone posting pics and saying all kinds of stuff about their phone and how they can load games, etc.... I SUCK... I wish I knew how to do all that stuff.

Since it seems too many people will just tell you to search here I will just tell you what I found with a similar problem.

What you need to do is depending on your phone service provider setup your email to send through their service.

Here is the way to do it for verizon. It may be different for your provider though so check with them if you use a different provider.

Why can't I send email through my existing ISP mail account? Some ISPs (Internet Service Providers) do not allow their customers to send email from other networks such as Verizon Wireless' NationalAccess and BroadbandAccess services. To accommodate Verizon Wireless customers who have email accounts that do not allow relaying, Verizon Wireless has implemented an outbound SMTP mail server for you to be able to send your email.
To utilize SMTP you will need to do the following:

1. Change your Outgoing Mail Server to smtp.vzwmail.net. The steps to change the Outgoing Mail Settings will vary by email client. Please refer to your email client provider for instructions on how to change the setting.
2. Create a VText.com profile if you do not already have a Verizon Wireless VText.com profile. Visit www.vtext.com from your PC to register for free. A TXT Messaging capable data device or phone is required.
   • The credentials to access the send mail server will be the 10-digit mobile number (used on VText.com) @vzwmail.net (i.e. 2025551212@vzwmail.net) for the user name. For the password use the password established on www.vtext.com.

The Verizon Wireless SMTP server can be accessed from most ISPs (Internet Service Providers) eliminating the need to reconfigure settings when switching between Verizon Wireless and other networks.

I hope this helps.

You also need to have the paid "Yahoo Plus" (I think that's what its called) account to be able to send mail through yahoo's servers.
