Hi all,

   our experience is a little different as we are not using Kannel
   to connect directly to SMSC.

   For e.g. EMS, it uses concatenated SMS. We get a deliver status
   report for each SMS. Hence we have to ensure that we receive
   all reports before generating CDR records. I am not sure
   if you mean delivery notification as the deliver status report to
   tell you that the handset receives the SMS successfully or the 
   submission to SMSC is successful.

   It is then the job of the handset to intelligently assemble those SMS.
