is it something I did wrong?

I am trying the NowSMS 5.0 and for each MMS I send using MMM, there are 3 SMS added in "Stats" window under SMSC tab.

why? shouldnt it send only 1 SMS?

thanks!

me again.

after enabling the sms debug I noticed nowsms is sending another sms to the number which is set in mms users phone number.

I was sending the MMS from another phone number other than the one I set in MMS Users username/password ... would that be the problem?

I'm not sure why there would be 3 messages.

But a typical MMS takes 2 SMS messages to be sent out for the notification.

Here are a couple of threads on the discussion board regarding configuration techniques to reduce the size of the notification:

Hope that helps!
