It looks to me like you need some access to the provider's MMSC gateway on their network. And this can't be done over the internet. Using a teathered phone that can send SMS or an evdo card works supposedly but I have neither.

So that looks like a dead end, unless someone knows how to configure mbuni to send to other MMS gateways via email, but even then I can't see in Mbuni how you would tell it how to route a number to a provider's email MMS gateway.

Its a shame we can't dump the traffic on a phone that can send MMS and watch the handshake. I can't imagine they did anything complicated like encryption. Its probably just sending some sort of device id string and the MMS server is accepting or rejecting the connection based on that.

I agree. We need to get another user agent string and see if that helps us. One could only hope the workaround would be this simple lol
