Carlon, I was having the same issue as you are and decided to try different settings. I looked up the settings for non tmobile phones and found these and they worked.
The bold is what I put in, but if it doesn't work you can try the other wap settings.
only change what applies to you and clear the user name and password. I then closed the application after I saved the settings, and then started it back up. Worked just fine after that. I had an old mms in my inbox but I assume it was too old to retrieve, but the one I got today loaded just fine and faster than normal I think.
Best of Luck.

1. Open the application manager and install rootsh, this is to gain access to the root files on your n900
2. Also install Vim, this is a file editor
3. When these have been installed open the app called x-terminal, you should see a prompt something like this $
4. type: sudo gainroot (this is to access the root, you should see /home/user # )
5. type vim /var/lib/gconf/apps/fmms/\%gconf.xml (that should access the file in question, scroll down and look for the entry in my previous post)
6. to exit the file: tap Esc then :q!
7. you should go back to /home/user #
8. type exit and then close the app.

EDIT: The entry is 0 for the string value.
Sorry, I wrote something wrong and it never gave me the proper stuff you needed till I tried again.
Hope this helps

Having some problems with my MMS - was working but cant receive any MMS now (although it does send)
Checked my settings and all matches up.
I am on TMobile (UK)
I am wondering if the change is because my operator on my phone now shows T-Mobile Orange???

Hi FP125, you'll have to elaborate a bit more, ie , what were the settings when it was working, the settings now that it's not, error messages etc.
