Hi, I'm starting a web site that will use SMS and MMS content and have a few questions. At start, I will not have a real connection to any mobile carrier. I plan to use smsNow to send/receive messages 1) Is there an emulator to send/receive SMS and MMS messages through smsNow so I can test my software as it get developed? 2) Are you aware if it is possible to have reverse billing (premium) when someone sends and MMS message? This one I've read in a previous post but not sure how it is done: suppose I receive an SMS message through nowSMS, it get placed in a directory and then a software picks it up, parses it and determines the user wants to receive an MMS message somehow. 3) What does the custom software need to do in order to send the MMS message? Should I build the MMS message and place it in a directory and nowSMS will pick it up automatically and send it or do I have to invoke a message in the software? 4) Also, is there a validation tool in order to be sure that the message is well formatted and how can I build one? (by custom software, using a nowSMS API or tool, etc) 5) Is this workflow billable to the user (premium) I know these are many questions but I wish someone could answer them. Thanks! | |||
