I have finally learned how to configure my POP email through GPRS on my P800 nad i can download my email, but it will not allow me to send, ever time its gets right to the part where it is showing that its about to send and has the percentage bar, and at that point it says "disconnecting" and tells me that there is an "invalid address in the TO: CC: or BCC: fields, i have checked and checked and i am not doing anything wrong. any ideas ? when i send it it asks me what means i want to send it by, and i chose "GPRS" as opposed to MSM, or mMode. what can i do to fix this ? also sometimes when it is sending i notice now it puts a dot (.) infront of the email address without me doing it, any ideas ?

Your mail ISP has to allow remote SMTP in some manner, like provide access to a SMTP server that authenticates. For example, you might use smtp.isp.com from your DSL or dial-up (no authentication) but might have to do something like authsmtp.isp.com with authentication when remote. It's ISP dependent.
