I was wondering how to get mailhandler to post submissions from my cell phone automatically. If i send a message to it, mailhandler is holding onto it and wont post automaticall. also how can i set it so mailhandler will check the email address every X# of minutes?

1. The mailhandler checks the address everytime cron.php is run. If you want to check for mail every 5 minutes, you'll need to trigger cron.php that frequently.

2. Regarding email from your phone, you'll need to make sure that your phone's email address has an account associated with it. Since you probably want to use a primary account, you might consider the mailalias module in contrib. http://drupal.org/project/mailalias

3. Note, mailhandler is awesome, but there are a few quirks that have been identified recently. You might want to look at the recent issues that have been posted. http://drupal.org/project/mailhandler/issues
Good luck,
