[Bug 1360403] Re: MMS does not work with T-Mobile US

 

I'm able to "receive" picture messages through a complicated workaround.
This gets dumped in the nuntium log (I obscured the incoming phone
number):

I can extract the URL from the dump and pull it down from the tmo server
as long as wifi is OFF

  wget http://atl2mosget.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc?T=mavodi-7-13b-
1bf-4-ca-4a21c28

which gives me a SMIL message with a jpg attachment.  If I truncate the
file up until the FF D8 FF magic number for jpeg, I'm left with a file I
can open in an image viewer.

The nuntium log also contains this line - maybe it's encountering an unexpected message type which prevents the MMS from propagating through the rest of the pipeline:
  2014/12/20 12:21:46 Error cannot decode media type for field beginning with 0x28@2

Hopefully this is useful to someone...

  I guess bug #1331813 is getting in the way of IPv6 working, so I was
  told to try 'Protocol=ip', but it doesn't work either.
