Problems with setting up messaging account in iPaq 210

[zacksba]

I deleted my messaging account that I sync via wifi to verizon.net on my ipaq 210 because I was having some problems sending messages and I figured I would start from scratch. However, when I tap on the new account setup option, it goes directly to the default outlook email account on the ipaq. I cannot find any options anymore that it will configure my messaging setup as it did in the past. Tapping on the add new account option in messaging does nothing except, again, bring me to the default outlook email.

Soft resets does not help. I would like to avoid a hard reset if at all possible. no new software installed except bejeweled 2 a few weeks ago.

any ideas besides hard resetting?

thanks for your help
