I'm using SwirlyMMS on an o2 PAYG sim.

When I receive an MMS and look up the image in Finder/Preview, there is the image file and an associated text file which is the message that came with the image. How can I view/read the message? If I try to open it in Preview, I just get a blank screen.

Second question. The image left the sender's phone as a 640x480 image, about 150kb. It arrives at my phone as 57kb 160x120 pixel image. Why should this be?

Try looking in http://swirlyspace.com/forum you may get the answers there

well to answer ur first question d/l a app called Mobile Text Editor to view the txt that was sent with the picture...basically just go in finder...select the txt document...click modify...open with...and open it with Mobile Text Editor thats how u get the text of the MMS...

ur second question is a lil more complicated...only b/c im not quite sure how it works...but if u add this source http://swirlyspace.com/SwirlyMMSSettings/Settings.xml in installer and d/l one of the fake phone thingys its suppose to enlarge your picture...i got this from SwirlyMMS itself under settings>>help...the reason y i say i dont kno if it works b/c my iPhone is actually receiving the pictures at its full image (i dont know how so dont ask) hope this worked...if it did u know what to do

Thanks capo, I'll give that a try.

TextEdit works fine. Many thanks.
