Hi,

My suggestion would be to have the provider change the HTTP POST URL to be http://host:port/mm7/accountname=password

This way, the details for their account on your side would be passed in the URL instead of in the "Authorization:" header.

It looks like the HTTP implementation in their MMSC will only present the "Authorization:" header if they try one time first and get the "401 Auth required" error.

It is likely not causing any problem that it is working this way ... but it is inefficient (and confusing). If you have them change to include the account details in the URL, then the auth handshake will go away.
