Mexico City and Hot!!

All arrived OK Stupid ash cloud floting over the atlantic ment we had to fly BACK over the top of england 150miles below Iceland, over Greenland (view was spectacular) then down the East cost of the USA. 12 hours and 10minutes later we landed in Benito Juárez Mexico city.

Will update with pictuers and rest of blogg later as i´m timed on this rather oddly set out keyboard and only 5mins and counting left......

Arrived (: 10minutes early as well!

Everything going to plan so far, flight landed 10mins early, posted card to mother and found comfortable lounge chairs, wi-fi don't seen to work but now to sleep times.

Will it fly part 2

The plane is on the runway waiting to be boarded, will it fly? I'll hopefully be able to jack onto some free wiffy whilst killing the 6hour wait for our main flight and will update then.

A beautiful night in the park.

It might not be the late 20's Celsius lake my south American destination but it's still sunshine and happy days.

Grounded

Well I should be wrighting this from a distant airport lounge whilst waiting for my connecting flight, but instead i'm off to the post office and then onto the local butcher to re stock for the week

:(

Cheers
Gee

Will it fly?

Well as i'm sure you're aware there is currently a huge volcanic ash cloud floting over UK/Europen airspace, i'm keeping my eyes on National Air Traffic Service and Flightstats.co.uk for updates on flights.

To keep my spirits high whilst wondering if i'm actually gonna get to fly tomorrow morning I've been amazed by some of the images taken of the cloud and this scotish guy :D

Finally got the phone to Email, Vodafone Smtp servers.

It's only been 6+ months worth of trying every combination of Smtp servers, ports, authentications, encryptions and even different wap/gprs connections from servage.net, Gmail , Yahoo! mail and even Vodafone uk themselves, but judging the last post (sent form phone) I've finally got my W995 on Vodafone uk to send Emails!

Vodafone being the 3rd largest operator in the UK still arn't trusted by 3rd party SMTP servers for sending of emails. I've been able to receive pop3 emails from my account with http://www.servage.net/ from the begining but have never been able to send mails using there SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server smtp1.servage.net. This hasn't really bothered me until I entered the world of mobile blogging and found out that my W995s blogger aplication sends expensive MMS messages rather than Emails over my free GPRS.
Long story short, I found out that to send Emails from ANY vodafone device (click here for iPhone) you have to register for yet another email account at
Vodafone 360 account and use there smtp server smtp.360.com.

In brief for anyone with the same problems and miraculously stumbles accross my blog.

Register for an account at Vodafone 360

Use SMTP server: smtp.360.com

SMTP authentication: Enabled

User name: User name for account at Vodafone 360

Password: Password for account at Vodafone 360

Encryption: SSL

Port: 465

Thats what works for me, Hope it works for you.
