Hi Paul, although I haven't already tested it, first of all, congratulations being one of the first implementing the MMBox functionality.
I did the quick code review in CVS on that as well as reviewed 3GPP specs on that but however I'd like to hear your motivation on pushing MMBox. Firstly, at least on my "quite new" Nokia 6230 I can't see the option which would say MMSC to store my incoming or outgoing MM to the MMBox. Secondly, I also couldn't find any MMBox client (both mobile user agent as well as external one). So as I understand, this will be the feature letting mobile phones to store and exchange MM with MMSC and VASP will be able to provide some kind of for example Web interface for MM similar to webmail. However, I think it will take time to reach the wider market. I'd interesting to get other objections. Btw, I ordered (it's still on the way) one book on Mobile messaging and it covers MMS from 1.1 to 1.3. Of course I don't recomend anybody to buy it, but however it might be useful to put it in mbuni.org resources place: http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470011432.html On Wed, 23 Mar 2005 13:15:39 +0300, Paul Bagyenda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The MMS v1.2 spec adds a specification for an 'mmbox'.
