Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a message service that can transmit multimedia content between mobile phones and between mobile phones and other applications such as Email servers. Today, multimedia messaging services are developing rapidly. At present, many provinces in China have newly built multimedia message centers (MMSC), and some provinces have also established multiple sets of multimedia message centers. With the development of 3G services, the multimedia message service will be further developed, and the capacity of the multimedia message center and the number of multimedia message centers will be greatly increased.

At present, there are many sets of multimedia message centers in a province. Since multiple users in a province belong to different multimedia message centers, the proportion of messages sent between users in a province to the entire multimedia message is It is very high, so that the amount of message forwarding between multimedia message centers will be greatly increased. In addition, because the situation of each multimedia message center in the current network is different for the message, for example, the network situation between some multimedia network centers is not ideal, so it is often impossible to receive reports when these multimedia message centers deliver reports to each other. Resulting in a low success rate of report delivery.

At present, the multimedia message MM4 interface delivery report message is usually transmitted by the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). Since the SMTP protocol itself needs to interact with commands such as HELO, MAIL FROM, RECP TO, DATA, and QUIT, the interaction process is slow. Therefore, , the two sides of the interaction need to wait for each other during the interaction. Its specific manifestation is that the time delay before and after sending a message during the interaction process is very large. In addition, in the current network operation, some abnormalities often occur in the multimedia message center, resulting in failure to send the delivery report.

However, a solution capable of solving the above-mentioned problems has not been proposed so far.
