I am trying to send an MMS to > 1 recipient so included in the MM7 SOAP envelope is the following :
<recipients>
<to><number>+353861234567</number></to>
<to><number>+353867654321</number></to>
</recipients>

However an MMS message is only created and sent to the 1st number in this list.

Hi Barbara,

What you describe may very well be legal formatting. Our MM7 parser does not expect the "<to>" element to be repeated. If there are multiple recipients for "<to>", it expects them to be listed under a single element.

So the following would work:

<recipients>
<to>
<number>+353861234567</number>
<number>+353867654321</number>
</to>
</recipients>

I'm going to go back and read the specifications, as I am not sure that this interpretation is correct, and I will follow-up.

Follow-up ... the MM7 spec itself is unclear on this issue. However the XML schema is a little more clear.

We should be supporting either your example, or mine.

You should be able to either repeat the "<to>" element (maxOccurs="unbounded") to specify multiple recipients. Or multiple recipients can be specified within a single element.

Currently we only support the approach that I describe in the previous message. But we will have to prepare a patch to address this issue.

Sorry, we do not sell PCs.

NowSMS is a software product.

The Now SMS/MMS Gateway is a middleware tool for SMS, which among other features, can be used to manage connections to one or more service
providers; or to manage receiving SMS messages; or to perform message formatting for advanced message types such as WAP push, MMS, etc.

(Note: The Now SMS/MMS Gateway is not a replacement for an SMS service provider. You need a subscription to a service provider, or a GSM modem, in order to do anything useful with NowSMS.)
