| Message | This is your message content - there is a counter to tell you how many messages parts will be sent, what the character encoding (GSM,UTF-!) and how total characters you have entered. As the Encoding changes from gsm to utf-16 so does the number of characters per message part. In the first part of the message with Encode = gsm you get 160 characters and with uft-16 you get 70. Once you go over this limit the characters per message part change to, gsm = 154 and utf-16 = 671000 characters. You cannot use contact field insertion in MMS send process as the sending process does not link to the contact records. |
