SMS notification of e-mail -n00b-

[Guest ghostrida]

ive been searching all day for this so forgive me if it is a stupid question. I just got the MDA from t-mobile here in the US and I set up my e-mail, but i keep getting an SMS that I have e-mail everytime I get new mail. Why? How do I shut this off?

TIA

You probably haven't actually setup the email accounts on your device yet. Click on the Messaging button and look at the active accounts. If you only see MMS, SMS, Outlook E-Mail, and Text Messages, you haven't setup your accounts.

First, setup the accounts on the TMO website. Next, on your MDA, click on Start, Programs, My E-Mail and run through that to setup your MDA. Old PPCPE 2003 devices could setup email accounts using the TMO website, but WM5 devices don't work that way. The MDA should ask which accounts you want setup. You can then customize your email behavior.

If you just want the alerts to stop, set it up that way. If you don't want to get email on your phone at all, turn off the alerts on the TMO website.

EMail me if you need any help with this.
