If you added it with fAPN it should be listed in fAPN and be deleteable, otherwise you have to issue the same set of commands to add it but replacing each with --unset instead of -s (iirc, gconftool-2 --help-all is good otherwise )

  • Allow for sending binary/non-image files (3gp, for example?)
  • Add a forward option, to re-pack & send MMS received from another.
Supporting the most common attachment is something I really want to do, so it's under development
Good point with the forward option, I'll see what I can do

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?
It already auto-downloads the message if it's connected to the correct connection .
I tried getting that spliffy popup but fail, granted I did not put as much time in to getting it to work like I could have - hopefully this is something to be added in the future as well.

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!
Thank you for testing and providing feedback (and sorry I can't do anything about the AT&T issue ;-))

Good point, I'll think about that, I know *I* don't want my MMS pictures to show up in Image Viewer by default though *cough*

Problem with fMMS? Run in x-terminal: cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/
After that you'll see fmms.log in filemanager or when you connect the device to your desktop as a mass storage device.
E-mail the log to me, if you don't have the email address, drop me a PM. Thanks!
