Ok, I am not going insane. I just picked up my phone and I had the option to send an MMS. I still can't receive them though. I have to go to the website to view.
When I get an MMS I still get the Picture Mail link, there is no view of the file until I go to the Picture Mail website and I am NOT able to send, I get a red X and says send failed.

It seems like after reading more that everyone is getting them same as before in a link to view on the Picture Mail website (CRAP IMO!!!) but others can send them just fine, I am not able to send at all.
I have resent service books, battery pull, reboot, everything I can think of and they just fail when I send them but I am getting them same as before.
A few of us on the BAW forums are looking and notice that under the MMS Transport service book there is no IP listed, this may be why some of us cannot send them.
What size are the pictures you're sending for the people that having it working? I wonder if, um, size matters?
It's not working for me and I have resent service books. Haven't done a batt pull....yet.
Under my camera options I have my pics set to 'Large' and 'Superfine'. One pic I tried to send was 623KB, the other was 735KB. Both failed with 'failed to send message'.

I have tried sending pics I had on the phone as well as some I took with the camera and they all failed, the ones I had on the phone were MMS I got from other people so I know it wasn't too big for me to get it.

Interesting. I don't have an IP address there either.

The pic I sent was taken from my phone and was 114kb in size. The BB I send it to has a different OS version, and she got it with the old link, not as a straight pic.
Funny part is I tried to update to the .131 but it didn't load. I still have the .119. But I have the option to MMS. Having a BB since they came out, I am confused myself on what I did and didn't do right. And still somehow I have MMS. To me that is funny as hell, but annoying that I don't have the .131. Guess I will try tomorrow, because I am stopping for the night.

I just deleted the MMS Transport service book and resent them to the phone and it never showed back up.
I guess if it never worked to begin with then I am not missing anything right?
I don't think that we will be able to get true MMS, everything coming in looks like it still has to come through the Picture Mail servers, and until Sprint cuts their losses on this system and tells Verisign they aren't re-licensing it I don't think it will be any other way.

Yeah, I am almost half tempted to call Sprint CS and see what they say. There was no word from anyone on the BAW forums about this dropping today just some people seen it and word spread FAST.
CS probably doesn't even know how to handle an MMS related issue on BB.
