MMS messages
MMS messages are similar to text messages but also allow you to attach
multimedia files such as pictures, audio or video clips. Each MMS message can be
up to 300 kB in size.
Note: You need to set up an MMS profile before you can send MMS messages. Normally,
your smartphone will set up the profile for you based on information retrieved from your

up the MMS profile.
