About MMS messages

With an MMS phone number, you can send and receive MMS messages that contain media files such as .jpg, .gif, .wbmp, .midi, .vcf
(vCard®), .ics (iCalendar), .avi, .mpg, or .mov files. An MMS phone number is a phone number that your wireless service provider sets up for
MMS messaging. If you have more than one phone number associated with your BlackBerry® device, your device sends MMS messages using
the first phone number that appears in the drop-down list at the top of the Phone screen in the phone application.

Find your MMS phone number

In the phone application, your phone number appears at the top of the screen. If your wireless service provider has set up your BlackBerry®
device for MMS messaging, this number is also your MMS phone number.
If you have more than one phone number associated with your device, the first phone number that appears in the drop-down list at the top of
the screen is your MMS phone number.
