Because of billing issues. We do this with the operator NetCom in Norway. The
price is set as the originator in the first message, the remaining messages
have originator=00.

I made a private patch to Kannel that take care of this, and it really does
works fine. However, it may be Netcom changes the originator on their side
after sorting out the billing - just a thought.
Interesting!!! Do you mean NetCom will charge for only a single message if all the messages originated from my gateway contains same originator?
