Hello, is there a way to send MMS directly from phone to a specific IP adress or in a specific directory of an Internet site? Or do I need to send MMS as email and latter in PHP to explore the specified letter box, and extract image corresponding to MMS? I tried this last method but my program does not work. It works if I send a mail with attached image but not with email generated by my phone. Strangely, if I manipulate manually that generated email (for example, if I transfer manually this mail to another mailbox) it works, PHP can extract my MMS, but it does not work if the transfer is auto. Seems as if there is some protection .... I would appreciate some explanation. | |||

No.
When you send an MMS message from a phone to an e-mail address, it is typical that the mobile operator adds some extra text (and sometimes images/logos) to the e-mail message. So the resulting e-mail message typically has more data that the originally sent MMS message. Unfortunately, it's pretty much just trial and error, looking at MMS to e-mail from phones on different mobile operators, until you get it working like you want to. Alternatively, with NowSMS and a GSM modem (http://www.nowsms.com/whatisnowsms.htm), it is possible to receive MMS messages as a phone number, and NowSMS has a way to pass the received MMS message directly to a PHP script as a multipart object. An example PHP script can be found here: http://www.nowsms.com/support/bulletins/tb-nowsms-016.htm -bn | |||
