Wireless Application Protocol: MMS Encapsulation Protocol

Overview Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a system application by which a WAP client is able to provide a messaging operation with a variety of media types. The service is described in terms of actions taken by the WAP MMS Client and its service partner, the MMS Proxy -Relay, a device which operates as a WAP Origin Server for this specialized service. This paper describes the content and encodings of the protocol data units (PDUs) for the multimedia messaging service.
