The MMS-C is able to perform limited message 
conversion - for example, from MMS to SMS - so 
that processing and air time is not wasted in send-
ing messages to mobile terminals that do not have 
adequate capability to receive them. It also handles 
service aspects such as store and forward, guaran-
teed delivery, subscriber preferences, operator 
constraints, and billing information. The MMS-C 
also vouches for high quality messaging, e.g. by 
format conversion. This means that the MMS-C 

recognizes which formats are supported in the 
mobile phone, and adapts the MMS messages to 
these formats. 

Users can easily get MMS into their phone. MMS 
supports OTA, meaning that the user does not have 
to configure the settings manually. The configura-
tion is done by the operator.

EMS uses existing SMS infrastructure and industry 
standards, keeping investments to a minimum for 
operators and providing a familiar user interface 
and compatibility with existing phones.
