On a related topic, I thought I would ask the group if they collectively or individually cared about this.
Our company connects to the EMI smsc at TIM, Italy's largest provider. (They serve about 22 million cellphones) This SMSC is a bit brain-damaged, since TIM won't allow a direct connection to the EMI protocol, they only allow an emulation for their own security and throttling purposes. And their emulation doesn't accept type 31 messages at all, in fact they shut the thing down. Their peculiar usage is to use a message 60 (restart) instead as a keepalive. To accomodate them, we need to change the kannel code manually every time we get a new version, so we are sending 60 instead of 31. Since this module is being changed continually anyway, does anyone like/hate the idea of making the keepalive message configurable? Thanks, Steve
