Hi JT,

I'm not sure exactly how you would do that.

It would be (more than) a bit difficult.

The only way that I could see doing it would be to define an "MMSC Routing" which routed the message to an MM7 connection. Where your application received the MM7 and parsed it for storage. And then you could forward the MM7 to another server for delivery.

The specifics really depend on how users are submitting messages into the system.

Are they VASPs or are they regular users with mobile phones?

If there are a large number of users, then I would expect that they are defined as standard MMSC user accounts. And you would define the "MMSC Routing" to route messages to your MM7 application for processing similar to how I described above.

If there are a small (or controlled) number of accounts, I would have them connect in as a VASP ... where there VASP is configured to forward all inbound requests to your application over MM7. Then you could MM7 back as another VASP account to submit the message back for final delivery through the NowSMS MMSC without requiring another server.
