SO happy with this. Hope this sticks around as an option/feature? I'm elated that I'm now at least getting notified when friends send MMS to me, even if it's not an image file.

It does leave one important question:
How does one delete the now un-needed duplicate APN one made before knowing this? I no longer need two now, but I can't seem to delete the new one I made in the system tools. Maybe a small update to fAPN?

If you're looking for feature requests, I have a few:
  • Allow for sending binary/non-image files (3gp, for example?)
  • Add a forward option, to re-pack & send MMS received from another.

As for the multiple-connection vs. auto-download issue: Can you detect what the current connection is? If so, it would be great, since you can compare it to the one needed by fMMS and auto-download if that's our current connection. If not, there could be a setting (always/ask/never) and possibly a UI/pop-up (for ask) to switch to our desired APN?

Great app, and thanks so much for getting it working! This was one of only two minor down points of the N900 for me (that and no AT&T 3G freq support), so I'm super happy that one of those limits is gone now!
