MMS uses your phone number, not an email address.

I'm sorry, i understand you are trying to help but please think your answers before you post them, have you ever taken a picture a picture with your phone, saved it, then composed an email, and attached the pic you just took to send that same picture? what a waster of time my friend, if you always do it this way you might as well just trash your computer and go back to the typewriter.

Did you even know you could just take the picture and select right from the picture to send it as an email or to a messenger contact? now i doubt you knew that

Ok, I just took a pic, went to Send picture.
click emailed.
then it came up with [default] in the send using.
I can then click with the trackball that default and scroll to whichever email address i want to send using.

can you do this?

It should but that is not what is doing. I have 5 email addresses setup, one is the default under "default services" for both email and calendar, and when i try to send the picture right after taking it it goes to my messages app and the adress it sends it from is not the one i have as my default email
