But isn't the right thing to do will be to wait till delivery status reports
for all parts has arrived and then only going ahead with informing the
application about the status of long message submitted.?

Is this SMSC specific behavior bcoz my SMSC is behaving very arbitrarily
when I ask for Delivery receipts for all parts? For a long message splitted
in 3 parts, its sometimes providing only 1 or 2 delivery receipts even when
I get all msg parts on my handset. My handset is Nokia 3310. And am
communicating to SMSC on SMPP 3.4.
Has anybody else also observed this kind of behavior from their SMSC's?
