Change MMS settings

When you send an MMS message, an SMS notification message will first be sent to the recipient, while your MMS message will be temporarily stored on an MMS server of your wireless service provider. When others send you an MMS message, similarly, the MMS message will be stored on the MMS server until you retrieve it. Hence, your device must be configured with the location of the MMS server for you to be able to send and receive MMS messages on your device.

When you purchase your device, it is already preset with your wireless service provider’s MMS server settings. If you accidentally lost the preset settings or you changed to another wireless service provider, follow the steps below to configure MMS settings.

To configure MMS settings

1.Tap Start > Messaging.

2.Tap Menu > Tools > Options.

3.Tap MMS in the accounts list to configure settings. The MMS Configuration screen appears.

4.In the Preferences tab, select or clear the provided check boxes according to your needs. You can choose to keep track of your MMS messages, retrieve messages immediately, accept or reject messages, and request a delivery or read receipt. You can also specify a resolution for images you send and message delivery attempts.

5.Tap the Servers tab and check if your device is preset with MMS server settings.

If there are no preset settings, tap New and enter the following information, which you can get from your wireless service provider:
