Hi, Paul Bagyenda,
Thanks a lot for your help.
Unluckily, the operator doesn't provide MM7/SOAP or EAIF support to us,
which using a truely common MSISDN as the receiver, so definitely I need some
other way to make it work. I have played a while with Kannel and knowing that
Kannel using AT commands when using a GSM modem as a SMSC to send and receive
short messages. In my opinion, when I receive a MMS, I just receive a
notification, and the notification is much like the WAP Push and contain the
information where the multimedia message is stored, then the phone initiates a
GPRS connection and this time it fetchs the content of the multimedia message
back. My question is, is there any chance that Mbuni will work this way with a
GSM/GPRS modem? And anything else required? If not, is there any alternative?
Really appreciate your suggestion and look forward to hear you back.
Have a nice day!
