Help saving ALL pictures from MMS

Hey,
I did a little bit of searching around on the net but could not find an answer, so I came to you all for some help! THANKS in advance!

So, I think its time my phone needs a little clean up. I have so many pictures and text messages saved on my phone that it is affecting its performance. I use Handcent and still have the native messaging system. I just downloaded and backed up my text messages with the SMS Backup and Restore. It seems to have worked great but in the process, it saves it all as a text file and does not seem to save the pictures in the text messages. I usually try and save all the pictures as they come in but I know I have failed to do so. I was wondering if there was a way to automatically save all the pictures in MMS messages. I would like to avoid having to go through dozens of text messages of 1000+ threads and save each one individually.

So is there a way to scan and automatically save all my text message images? I am not so much concerned about e-mail because I know they are safe within the inbox. I cannot imagine any default function within the phone itself that will allow me to do this; considering I have had the phone 2 years and have yet to come across this feature. So, is there a trustworthy or any app at all that can allow this?

Thanks for reading!! :)
 
You are awesome! After I posted, I thought about searching the market for MMS Backup... did not get the chance to do it and I was unsure of a good one! Thanks for the speedy reply!
 
I tried to use Save MMS app but every time I go to open it, the app forces close. No good for me. I tried SMS Backup+, made a new gmail account when I try to save JUST the MMS files, it goes through 31,000+ files one at a time. About 75 a minute... That amounts to about 7 hours of this running. Is there a more efficient app that you may know about?
 
Well, I used Save MMS on all my phones without any problems.
The app is so easy to use, so I never looked for an other MMS app.
Can't help you with a tip for an other app, sorry.

Might be this big amount of MMSs of yours which causes the app's failure :confused:

You could email the dev to ask about.
