Hello,

1. Kannel is not written to support MMS (Kannel existed before MMS was
invented) but Kannel can help to send/receive MMS by means of:
   a) Sending an MMS service indication (basically looks like a WAP Push
with a different service ID). This is done by sending a (binary) SMS
message, which Kannel can do very well.
   b) Use the WAP Gateway as a relay to an MMS Relay Proxy to send (upload)
MMS content.
   c) Use the WAP Gateway as a relay to fetch MMS content from an MMS Relay
proxy.
   d) Also the WAP Gateway can be used to deliver service indication (like
indication received / MMS content received) to the MMS Relay proxy.

2. Currently Chimit has a set of PHP scripts, based on mmslib and the script
at http://www.heyman.info/mmsdecoder.php that we use (in combination with
Kannel) as a PROTOTYPE for developing a full-featured MMSC. This MMSC is
going to be in C++, so unfortunately we cannot convert it (at least not as
Open Source) to an MMS-Box or something thelike.

3. See mmslib (I think it is available from sourceforge or some other
community) and mmsdecoder (see the link above).

Cheers!

Rene Kluwen

Subject: mms with kannel?


Hello all =)
My question had been repeated several times (I read
this year's archive) and should already be in the faq
right now. And anyway, I would just be restating it-

1. what is the status of mms support in kannel. are
the developers pushing it? do they have timeline?

2. for those who have already used mms with kannel (ie
able to send and receive mms), can they tell us the
steps that they took in order to make it all work?

3. aside from kannel, do you know of any mms client
(that is, i would be able to send and receive mms) in
linux? anyone who has used the program in here (i
think this uses kannel)-

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mmsclient/

I have a gprs capable modem able to connect to the
internet using http or wap. any related discussion,
examples, specification is very useful but just about
any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance =)
