Hi bryce, i was wondering, the .mms files nowsms creates with mmscomp.exe right ? and for every request from a phone to download the mms message you unpack it, and convert the contents according to the uaprof of the downloading phone right ? my question, how do you unpack the .mms message created with nowsms mmscomp.exe ? i'd like to be able to extract the .mms files that are within de MMSCDATA dir is there a quick way to do that, could you create mmsuncomp.exe, or any other quick sollution to unpack .mms files created by nowsms 5 grtz, John | |||

Hi John, We don't have any easy way of doing it. I must confess to wanting to do the same thing from time to time, and I do have a trick that I use. It is not as simple as if an MMSUNCOMP.EXE were to exist, but it is better than nothing. I define an "MMSC VASP" account, and I specify the "MMSC Routing for Received Messages" for the account to be "Receive to MMS-IN Directory". I then do an HTTP POST of the MMS message to /mm1/vaspname=vasppassword. (Include the HTTP Header "Content-type: application/vnd.wap.mms-message" and a "Content-length:" header.) I should also mention that you do have to swap the first two bytes of the MMS message to change 8C 84 to 8C 80. Usually, rather than extracting files from the MMSCDATA directory, I'm testing something specific, and I configure the MMSC URL on the phone to be http://server.name/mm1/vaspname=vasppassword, so that anything that I submit from the MMS client on the phone gets unpacked and written into the MMS-IN directory. -bn |
