Message conversion
The MMS-C is able to perform limited message
conversion - for example, from MMS to SMS - so that
processing and air time is not wasted in sending
messages to mobile terminals that do not have adequate
capability to receive them. It also handles service aspects
such as store and forward, guaranteed delivery,
subscriber preferences, operator constraints, and billing
information. The MMS-C also vouches for high quality
messaging, e.g. by format conversion. This means that
the MMS-C recognizes which formats are supported in
the mobile phone, and adapts the MMS messages to
these formats.
OTA configuration
Users can easily get MMS into their phone. MMS
supports OTA, meaning that the user does not have to
configure the settings manually. The configuration is
done by the operator.
