Multimedia Messaging Service - Challenges

1 Distribution lists: Current MMS specifications do not include distribution lists nor methods by

which large numbers of recipients can be conveniently addressed, particularly by content providers, called Value-added service providers (VASPs) in 3GPP. Since most SMSC vendors have

adopted FTP as an ad-hoc method by which large distribution lists are transferred to the

SMSC prior to being used in a bulk-messaging SMS submission, it is expected that MMSC

vendors will also adopt FTP.
