Hi Paul,

Thanks for the quick reply and the pointers, I will take a look today. A have a concern with writing my own code. I was considering using PPP and create a network interface and just doing a wget to get it. However, I think this approach will do strange things considering kannel will be listening to the whats returned from the modem. If I write my own code then won't this still happen? Presumably mbuni deals with this in some way when it wants to use the connection. Is this the case?

Many thanks again,

Gareth

Gareth,

Short answer is that mbuni is not designed to retrieve the message for you. However it is of course possible to write some code to do this. Poke around in mmsc/mmsproxy.c and mmsc/mmsmobilesender.c, see what you can use. In particular, look out for HTTP GET usage, and message decoding...

Hope that helps

Hey Paul,

Thanks for that. What I am trying to establish is if mbuni can retrieve an MMS for me. I have a GSM modem and have received the notification and know where (on the internal provider network)it is. I want to get that and store it on my computer. I thought that since mbuni supports phone -> phone and message centre transfer then maybe it would be able to get it for me. If not directly, then maybe there is some code somewhere in mbuni that I could use?

Many thanks,

Gareth

Hello Gareth,
When your phone receives a notification, it makes an HTTP request to mbuni to retrieve the message. This request is sent (by the phone) to the respective host on the mms-port, usually via a WAP gateway.
 I hope this sheds some light...

Hi all,

    I have a question about mms-port. The docs say:

mms-port Integer Port on which mmsproxy listens for MMS messages from MMS clients (Default is 8191).


When it says listen for messages from MMS clients, does that refer to notification messages? If so will it go ahead and retrieve the message? If not what does it refer to and is there code around in mbuni that will retrieve the message?


Cheers,

Gareth
