Hi Alma, It would help me answer if I knew more about your configuration. If my memory is correct, it is an operator MMSC. The main concern that I have in this configuration is that a massive campaign may saturate the outbound message queue, which can introduce delays and backlogs for regular message traffic. So it is a question of outbound license speed compared with the size of the broadcast. Usually it is a good idea to break the campaign into groups so that you can manage this flow. The easiest way to send an MMS to a distribution list is via the web interface. You can import distribution lists from text files. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des, Yes, we are an operator with MMSC service configured. In which section do we define the distribution list? And how is the campaing started or stopped? | |||

Hi Alma, This is all done thru the web interface (by default x.x.x.x:8800). You define an account under "SMS Users" to allow access. (See http://www.nowsms.com/doc/web-menu-interface) However, I would caution that once you send a large campaign, you can't stop it, other than deleting messages from the outbound queue. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

what is the most amount of mms recipients to put in a group. say i put 7000 in a group. would it be better to make 7 groups of 1000 and just put group1, group2, group3, group4, (totaling 7000) in the "to:' box 2nd question, when i put a sms text group of 1000 it seems to get jammed at 596 every time.. is there a different setting to have the text trickle out. should i make groups of 500 and do the same group1, group2, group3 in the to: box |
