What network you on? You might need to request MMS settings from them.

Firstly, go to settings > Messages and make sure MSS Messaging is set to on;



Then you probably need to do a reboot of the phone before doing the next bit.

After reboot, go to Settings > General > Network > Cellular Data Network and make sure the APN is filled in for MMS;



Obviously, those APN settings are for T-Mobile so don't copy them. Try the following;

I would suggest you restore the iPhone and re-install IS4.01 . I had to do this on my 3G last week as the first upgrade didn't install properly. It sounds like a similar problem and some features have not been installed.
