    An MMS message will require two things, a text messaging plan, and access to data, meaning that if you have a data block on your line you will not be able to send a MMS message. The only reason that you have to have access to the internet with line is beacuse when you are sending a MMS, it will have to send it through the internet to send the message because the regular SMS service does not support pictures to be sent so using the MMS server will require the internet and if the data is blocked on the line then it will not allow the MMS message to go through. The only reason it becomes a ruckus is because customers are paying for a text messaging package that includes MMS in that but if you do not have an unlimited Data plan on the account and you just have the pay per use data feaure on the account data charges can occur very quickly and easily because AT&T will charge you .01 cents/kb. So the ruckus comes becuase people are afraid to incurr data charges or do not want to pay for a data plan and get made when they cant send MMS when the MMS messaging is included in their text messaging plan.
