Hi, I've configured Now SMS/MMS as my MMSC, both gateway and my mobile phone are set correctly. As I try to send MMS to other person, I found there are 2 SMS messages sent out from the gateway. But, as I set back to my mobile operator's MMSC, and I use 2-way for sending out MMS, I found there is only 1 SMS message sent out from the gateway. So, what is the difference with the above-mentioned, does it mean, if my company uses Now SMS/MMS as the MMSC, we will have to pay 2 SMS?! Or if there is any misconfiguration? How to shorten it to only 1 SMS? Thanks in advance. | |||

Hi Roland, Out of curiosity, what is the mobile operator? Normally, the MMS notifications that we have seen from operator MMSCs are always 2 SMS messages. There are ways to tweak the notification in NowSMS to get it down to a single SMS. Please see the following discussion threads for this information: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/641.html http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/417.html -- Kent Williams Now Wireless Support | |||

Thanks Kent! I've shorten it to 1 sms according to the instruction now. But I also notice that, when I receive a MMS notification, it is like this: To:139xxxxxxxx From: VASP:v (I add only one vasp user as v) how can I get the REAL sender's phone number? Thanks in advance! | |||

Hi Roland, Apologies for the delay getting back to you. Basically, you need to define a "VASP Sender Address" in the "MMSC VASP" definition. Or, you can include a sender address in your message submission. The "VASP:xxx" text only should get inserted if there was no sender specified in the message submission, and the "VASP Sender Address" field is blank in the configuration. -bn |
