Yes, I know that in SMS messaging it is restricted,
but in MMS I am quite sure it is possible by setting the *From* header
inside a MMS to a given string. (test done in another context without
Mbuni).
The thing is that I ask some info about how Mbuni handle these different
parameters (sender, faked-sender, ...) because I have a behavior I don't
understand where:
- I have the string let's say *Sender* set in my config file,
- I send my MMS
- Inside mbuni logs I do see *'from sen...@unknown*'
- In the pcap trace I don't see any value in *From* Header !! the field is
empty
- On my mobile phone I receive the MMS with +123456789 from value
I think because the *From* value inside pcap trace is empty then MMS-C put
the Sender modem MSISDN.
So is there a problem when the sender is not a MSISDN address ?
In mmlib/mms_util.c I found:
*if (isphonenum(*address) || (typ && octstr_str_case_compare(typ,
"/TYPE=PLMN") == 0)) {
mms_normalize_phonenum(address, unified_prefix, strip_prefixes);
octstr_append(*address, keep_suffix ? octstr_imm("/TYPE=PLMN") :
octstr_imm(""));
} else if (typ)
octstr_append(*address, keep_suffix ? typ : octstr_imm(""));
else
octstr_append(*address, keep_suffix ? octstr_imm("@unknown") :
octstr_imm(""));
octstr_destroy(typ);
}*
Not being an expert in C I wonder if Mbuni is able to replace a MSISDN
address by a string and why it should add '@unknown' after the string.
In any case even with this it don't seems to work as my From field value is
empty...
Maybe some Mbuni experts a some clues about this ?
