hi what's the best way to allow autoprovisioning? can this be done by country code? further, is there a way to impose sending limits on that MSISDN?

e.g. i would like to allow anyone in +1 country to be able to be sent an MMS up to 3 times. after the third time, that MSISDN would be over limit.

i'll settle for being able to do the above without the limits, as i can do the limits in my code.

thanks in advance

Hi Steve,

Can you clarify? I'm not sure that I understand the context of the autoprovisioning.

Regarding the sending limits ... unfortunately, all that exists in the current version is the per day/per month limits. We are planning to introduce the absolute credit balance (like in the "SMS Users" accounts), but unfortunately, that is not implemented yet.

You do have the ability to control your own limits via the HTTP callback interface, however (http://www.nowsms.com/support/bulletins/tb-nowsms-001.htm).

well basically i don't want to go to the "MMSC Users" page to add someone to be able to send an mms to that number. i want the NOW installation to already assume any number coming in via SMTP is valid, and just pipe out the MMS. so i guess it's not really autoprovisioning, but no provisioning

Steve,

Ok. I understand ... there are different contexts that provisioning could apply to ... so I understand, and can explain how you can get around this.

Take a look at http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/460.html, where it describes how you can either authenticate to the SMTP server using SMTP AUTH or, you can use the SMTPIPAddressList= setting in MMSC.INI.

The message thread that I've pointed you is asking about e-mail to SMS, but the same applies to e-mail to MMS.

Let me know if you need any further clarification.
