After this, just send yourself a mms and you will also receive it(hopefully)

Infact, I would recommend this to be the FIRST troubleshoot you should try, if you believe your settings to be correct.
Tried this with polite, rude and havoc connection and got the following;

Operation failed
(-2 'Name or service not known')
Please check your settings.

Checked out my settings and completely reconfigured my APN using fAPN - deleted the standard "MMS" APN and created a new "Vodafone MMS" APN, then configured it as per the wiki and then got the following;

Operation failed
(-3 'Temporary failure in name resolution')
Please check your settings.

Ok so now got to the bottom of it..... Then I had to reconfigure all the settings within the application as well - as I had deleted the relevant APN it had cleared all the settings in fMMS pertinent to the previous APN.

@leetut - use fAPN to delete the "MMS" APN and then reconfigure the APN after creating a new one. Worked for me and can select which connection I want to use by changing connections in the settings menu to "Always ask".

Hope this helps anyone else having issues with this great app.......
