Hi all,
I recently bought 2 Nokia 6230's for my wife and I and have been unable to
log on to Yahoo Messenger over GPRS. On all previous phones I have had, you
just go to mm.yahoo.com and you can log in. It works out much cheaper than
using the sms version. When I try to do it on the 6230's it comes back with
"Page not Found".

It has to be something with the phone and I can take the sim out and put it
in other phones, 8310, 6610, Z600 etc and can log in no probs. I have even
tried other SIMs for Optus and Voda netwoks and get the same message.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Didn't know about that URL, but just gave it a go on my Nokia 7250i and
it worked no problems.
