MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service)
What is MMS?
With an MMS capable device, MMS allows you to create and send mobile messages containing images, photos, text, audio clips and short video recordings. If you connect a post-paid from 19 June 2003, you will automatically receive access to MMS. If you have a Pre-Paid mobile service on the GSM network, you may receive access to MMS from 1 March 2004 upon request.
You can send an MMS from your MMS capable handset:
for viewing online for a limited period at www.telstra.com by someone who does not have an MMS handset.
If you send an MMS for viewing at www.telstra.com, the recipient will be notified, subject to clause 1.1, by SMS.
International MMS
On and from 19 August 2005, you can also send mobile messages containing images, photos, text, audio clips and short video recordings to customers of selected overseas phone companies. Details of the participating overseas phone companies are set out on www.telstra.com.
A size limit of 300 kilobytes per message applies to international MMS. If you try to send an international MMS message larger than 300 kilobytes, your message may not be delivered. Most handsets support previewing of message properties, including file size.
