I want to send MMS to mobile phones, and it only contains nothing other than a Jpeg file.
My questions are:
1.Someone told me that the content type of a MMS can only be either 'application/vnd.wap.multipart.mixed' or 'application/vnd.wap.multipart.related',is that true?
2.If I just want to send a JPEG Photo within MMS which content type I can choose as I don't want to use SMIL?

1. Yes.
2. mixed

While it does not directly answer your questions above, I would suggest that you also look at http://www.nowsms.com/howmmsworks.htm for background information on how the MMS architecture works, and practical considerations. I say this because a lot of people get caught up with creating the binary MMS message file, and it is often very difficult to actually do anything with one of these binary MMS message files once you have gone through the trouble of creating one.
