Mbuni : has anyone ever used it?

Hi everybody

I started using Linux distributions 1 year ago and after learning about the existence
of Mbuni, an Open Source Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) gateway,i started to use it in order to create a VAS GW.

If any of you has ever used it and has some experience,maybe i can ask him a couple of questions? Problem is there's no so much documentation about it on the internet and i could not get any answer on the proper website.

I'm not sure if this is the right section to post this kind of question,and in that case no problem if admins move it in the proper place.

Thanks in advance for your help

Re: Mbuni : has anyone ever used it?

The website recommends the mailing lists for discussion etc - did you try them?

There's a wildly out-of-date CVS package in the AUR, so someone here used it at some time.

Re: Mbuni : has anyone ever used it?

Of course i tried using it,but after 4 days i haven't still received any answer

For what concerns the documentation in the website i already followed it step by step,checking the ports too (i mean set the proper ports values in order to create input/output track for mms).

Now i'll check if the default files located to the url you kindly passed me work fine,i'll let you know
------------------------------------------------
UPDATE: Ok,the files contained in the url are good but problem is they only concern sending and receiving sms,instead i need of mms.

I'll write down what i mean exactly,in order to be more clear with you:
----------------------------------------------->
First of all this is the Mbuni website: www.mbuni.org/index.shtml

What i need is to send a fake mms to the VAS Gateway,and this mms shall be stored in my MYSQL database (i already succeeded in sending a sms using Kannel,which must be used together with Mbuni for mms).

I created the configuration file with all the necesary groups,then run in separate shells :
1)bearerbox(kannel)
2)smsbox(kannel)
3)wapbox(kannel)
4)mmsbox(mbuni)

and everything seems to work fine,i mean no errors in the debug.

Problem, is,when i check in my Mysql database there're no mms but just a message which tells me i received a message in format of a mms;also,no image and text of the mms are displayed in the php test file i created in order to display the mms content (it means i can't open the file,it gives me error).

I'm sorry if this is not clear, but it's a little complex if you don't have already tried using Kannel (an other Free source application for Linux to send sms) and i'm still new with this.
