Patch for WM 6.1? - Treo Forum

KitC · 05-24-2009, 07:10 AM

I am still having e-mail problems. I am only able to send out to people who are on my contact list. We run an apartment business and if a perspective tenant e-mails me, I am unable to respond. I went to Sprint, they said it was our server, went to the provider, they said it was Sprints problem. Everyone has heard that story before. So I stumbled across this...anyone have any ideas. I downloaded it and it came up that I did not have the correct 6.1 version? The pro has the most current WM program correct? Here is the link so that you can see what I am talking about...

It showing up now I went and looked at it The article is from 208 so I would think it was incorporated in the spring pro version and probably the gsm version as wel but I dont know. I would think that ATT and Sprint would have taken care of this and AT should have updated to a diferent serve to get away from everything Cingular by now. But oh well!

Just as a point of interest, I haven't used mobile email, only hotmail. So, I never knew there was an issue. Thanks to this thread, I DLed the patch & it did install on my 1.01 ROM GSM TP.

Thanks for searching this out and leting us (me) know I have not had any experience like this but it seems kinda crazy that they would have modified this and know that this was a problem with ATT devices or devices on ATT. There are a lot of then in the stable or in use on ATT. I think I will dl the fix and install as well.

Never a dull moment.

You had mentioned that you thought AT&T had changed everything off the Cingular brand. I'm not sure they did. Cingular.com still works to get to the website. And I thought some of my settings still used the Cingular name. If I'm correct, I can understand it. It would eliminate having a lot of unhappy clients who would have no idea how to change phone settings.

I think you are correct they are using redirector tecnology which is okay I guess as long as its not causing a major time lag. If they wanted they could figure out a way to do it automatically. But they's rather just take our $$$$.
