Hi,

I can succesfully send MMSs through nowSMS (using the web interface). Are these sent through the GSM modem (in my case a t68i connected to my PC running nowSMS) or is the MMS message sent directly through my Internet connection?


thanks,


Dave

Dave,

The default behaviour is to send the MMS notification over SMS (via the GSM modem), and the receiving phone retrieves the content of the MMS message over the internet.

See this thread for more of an explanation of the technology of MMS:
