+About
+===========================
+mmsd is a lower level daemon that transmits and recieves MMSes. It
works with
+both the ofono stack and the Modem Manager stack.
+Please note that mmsd alone will not get MMS working! It is designed
to work
+with a higher level chat application to facilitate fetching and
+sending MMS. It interfaces with other applications via the dbus.
-Compilation and installation
+Compiling mmsd
============================
-
In order to compile proxy daemon you need following software packages:
- GCC compiler
- D-Bus library
- GLib library
+Installing mmsd
+============================
+
To configure run:
- ./configure --prefix=/usr
+ ./bootstrap-configure --prefix=/usr/
Configure automatically searches for all required components and
packages.
-To compile and install run:
- make && make install
+To compile, run:
+ make
+
+And to Install:
+ make install
+
+mmsd will be installed in /${prefix}/libexec (if you are following
this guide,
+it is /usr/libexec )
+
+To uninstall, simply remove the "mmsd" binary from /${prefix}/libexec
or run:
+ sudo make uninstall
+
+Note that you must manually configure your favorite service manager to
run
+the daemon, as this installer does not configure it to autorun.
+
+Testing out mmsd
+===========================
+To configure, run:
+ ./bootstrap-configure --enable-debug --enable-maintainer-mode
+
+Make it:
+ make
+
+Run daemon in foreground with debugging:
+ ./src/mmsd -n -d 'src/*'
+
+General Configuration
+===========================
+On first run, mmsd will write a settings file at
+"$HOME/.mms/$PLUGIN/mms"
+
+IMPORTANT NOTE: If you change settings in this file, mmsd MUST BE
RESTARTED
+ for the changes to take effect!
+
+This settings file use sane defaults, but you can change them:
+
+UseDeliveryReports
+ Whether you want delivery reports for MMSes you send
+
+TotalMaxAttachmentSize
+ The maximum size all of your attachments can be before mmsd
rejects it.
+ NOTE: This value is carrier specific! Changing this value to a
higher
+ number may cause your carrier to silently reject MMSes
you send.
+ CHANGE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
