Scott, thanks for replying. 

I got tired of fighting with it so I just uploaded what I wanted to put on
the phone to some free space I had at cox and pulled it down from there.

It seems that Cingular's gateway will only pull files from a web server
running on port 80 (I can't run my web server on port 80 since I'm on a
residential cox line).  I don't want to change my phone to use another
gateway right now because I think my MMS messages will then count as raw
internet dl's instead of coming from my MMS pool.

James

Look in your apache logs and try and see if the phone is even hitting it.
If not you may be able to run the WAP gateway on port 80 using virtualhosts.
