Hello, I've a simple question: I read the help and I send mms message notifications using the following URL format: http://127.0.0.1:8800/?PhoneNumber=xxxxxxxx&MMSURL=name.domain/path/filename.mms It's all OK, but can I send mms message notifications to e-mail address instead to a phonenumber? If the answer is Yes, how I can make it? Thank you, eli | |||

Eli, No. We support MMS phones connecting in to the gateway to send to e-mail addresses. But we do not support the posting of messages to e-mail addresses in the web interface. If I may ask, what are you looking to accomplish with this? When we send an MMS from a mobile phone to an e-mail address, we generally decompile the MMS into individual parts so that it is understandable to the message recipient. -bn | |||

Eli, Assuming that you are currently using the Now SMS/MMS gateway's MMSC for the phone-to-phone MMS messages, to send from phone to e-mail, it is just a matter of getting the MMSC setup to have an e-mail link. The configuration of e-mail related parameters in the MMSC is all done on the "MMSC" page of the dialog. The important parameters are: SMTP Port Number: 25 is the default, best to leave it at that unless you have some special SMTP software that you are interfacing the gateway with. Domain name for MMS e-mail: This specifies the domain name to be associated with the e-mail addresses of the users defined to the MMSC. SMTP Relay Host: This is the IP address or host name of an SMTP mail server that will act as a relay, accepting e-mail messages from the MMSC and forwarding them to their eventual recipients. Getting these parameters set is sufficient for enabling e-mail out from MMS to e-mail recipients. Getting messages from e-mail in to MMS involves setting up an "MX" record in DNS for the domain name that you are using, so that any mail for this domain gets routed to the host that is running the MMSC, where the MMSC will receive that e-mail on the SMTP port. Let me know if you require any further clarification. -bn | |||
