If I'm not mistaken (but I very well could be), your issue has more to do with the MMS settings the phone uses, and not whether or not Cingular supports MMS with the 8100. When sending and receiving MMS (or SMS) they go through Cingular's servers, and are directed to those servers when you hit the "send" button. Being a (unlocked) T-Mobile phone, it is probably configured to direct to T-Mo's servers. That being said, I don't have much of an idea as to where to tell you to look for these settings, or even if I'm right on this (this is my guess as to what the issue may be, having dealt with Nextel phones....unlocked Boost phones cannot send or receive SMS/MMS until the phones settings are updated to send to Nextel's servers instead of Boosts').....
