Hi,

If I'm implementing an Mms Client for the Now Mms Gateway what interface do you recommend using? Eaif seems to be dying out in other MMSCs - will your support be dropped any time soon?

Many Thanks,
Jet

Hi Jet,

I'd use MM7.

EAIF is Nokia proprietary, and Nokia is moving toward MM7.

We'll continue to support EAIF, both as a client and a server in NowSMS. I've been in contact with one major operator that is preparing to launch premium rate MMS on their network, and they'll initially only be supporting EAIF.

The good thing about NowSMS is that even if you use MM7, you have flexibility interfacing into other network environments, such as NowSMS direct delivery, EAIF, or the Ericsson proprietary implementation of MM7.
