Maximum character limit for MMS <subject> and <payload> when using type=plain/text

We had a MMS question from a developer regarding the maximum characters for the subject attributes and the payload when using plain text.

Q: What's the maximum number of characters for the subject field, and

  • A: 64 characters is the limit to the subject size.

Q: What's the maximum number of characters for the field when using

  • A: Same answer here as well. Maximum characters in the payload is based on the MMS size. I believe you can assume 1 byte per character, although I believe there is some minor overhead (approx. 200 bytes).
