That can be a wrong assumption. For example, that was true when I first
activated my MMS service, but then I changed my phone and I configured
all the GPRS, MMS, WAP and e-mail stuff for myself. So if they rely on
my initial data, now that data is no longer valid.
[anyway, as far as I can see around me, MMS was born already dead:
because of the requirement to properly configure the phone, *even on
receiving*, sending a MMS will always fail – the user will receive a
SMS notification with details on how to see its message on web, but the
procedure is soo complicated, a registrarion is required, the MMS will
expire after some time, in practice it is easier and quicker forget
about MMSs, or to meet that person and give directly the material on CD
or smth.]
