LWP only supports a certain list of protocols. mms:// is not one of them. One could certainly learn about the protocol and write mms.pm for LWP, but it appears that no one has done so at this time. If you follow this example, the problem should become more clear:

         # Create a user agent object
         use LWP::UserAgent;
         $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
         $ua->agent("MyApp/0.1 ");

         # Create a request
         my $req = HTTP::Request->new(POST => 'http://www.perl.com/cgi
+-bin/BugGl
impse');
         $req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
         $req->content('match=www&errors=0');

         # Pass request to the user agent and get a response back
         my $res = $ua->request($req);

         # Check the outcome of the response
         if ($res->is_success) {
             print $res->content;
         } else {
             print "Bad luck this time\n";
         }
