mms-viewer

A python script to download/parse MMS messages.

Can use a phonebook database. To do so, create an sqlite database named phonebook.db.

Schema:

CREATE TABLE phone_numbers(
    phone_num char(11) primary key not null,
    first_name text not null,
    last_name text not null
);

I used a lot of references to create the MMS decoder. Such as the MMS spec:
