I've got an PinePhone (Evergreen) running Mobian Bookworm. I got MMS messaging working in February after installing chatty v0.6.0-1 and it was fine until on or shortly before March 12 2022. The messages seem to be retrieved and queued in ~/.mms/modemmanager/ but they don't get processed further and make their way into chatty anymore.
I've also got a Ting SIM with service via T-Mobile/Dish and MMS works fine with that. I've switched SIMS back-and forth several times and the symptoms are persistent - Verizon always fails now and Ting works.
Here is the log for a 2nd attempt at processing a message:
After the "Connection successful!" message there should be some communication happening but instead I seem to get a timeout after one minute. My MMS config has CarrierMMSC=http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms and MMS_APN=vzwinternet.
I've tried a varety of config changes in case this had something to do with DNS, and cleared nftables rules in case the firewall was interfering. No joy.
Does anyone have a clue what's going on here? Is there anyone for whom MMS & Verizon is working?
Edit 1: I have done regular dist-upgrades, including a couple days ago, and the symptoms don't seem to change.
