Bulk SMS individual response for each number

2012-12-05 Thread Steven Nsubuga
In the event that I send an SMS to 2 numbers via kannel, ie to=178+179, is
it possible to get a separate response from kannel for each of the 2
numbers I have specified? This would  mostly help in the event that one of
the numbers is wrong, for example in my smsbox setup I have
set sendsms-chars = 0123456789 +- meaning that if I had to=abc that
would be rejected by kannel. However, when I include that wrong format in a
multi-send, ie to=abc+178, I do not get any error and the correct number
178 does receive the SMS. So my question is, is it possible to receive from
kannel a separate response for each recipient?

this is conceptually not possible. If you send multiple SMS in one go, kannel 
sees this as one transaction and thus can only acknowledge one.
So the best is to send them one by one.

1. You need to post to us...@kannel.org instead of devel! Devel only
intended for kannel's developers, bugs and patches. All questions related
to configuration and understanding how kannel does work should be posted *ONLY
*to us...@kannel.org

2. As Andreas said you should send each message via single transaction
either via HTTP submit to smsbox or via sqlbox plugin

3. Kannel already can receive separate reponses for each recipient, you're
just doing it wrong.
