I tried to give it a mail server address, but that data entry box allows only digits and no alpha chars or dots. (If it were to accept the server address, I'd then expect it to demand user name and password for authentication.) To sum up: choosing "send message as email" it provides a box for the "email address", then it provides a box for the "subject", then it offers the whole screen for the message (only about 140 chars now, because some have been used up for the address and the subject), then it provides a box for the "email server number". So it seems this Nokia will not allow me to send as email. It clearly expects the phone number of the telco's gateway. The SCT CSR told me to enter the email address instead of the "email server number" (he said that's what he does and it works) but because the phone won't accept alphabetic chars here, that's not going to work for me. (And I doubt that it does work for him.) -- John Savage (my news address is not valid for email)
