Disable Stock MMS

That makes sense.

What I'm getting at is after checking those boxes the stock mms app stops telling me I have a message, but when I open it I see the new message I had waiting already. It is still receiving messages. Is that going to continue to happen even though I'm using Handcent?

Yea because both are just viewing the message from android's messaging system. It's not actually retrieving them. The only "retrieve" is downloading an mms attachment.

Well I was way off on how that worked, but good stuff to know. Thanks for all the info. Handcent is working like charm.

Yes it will still recieve it.. only you won't get notified.
