Both is true. If a store-file is configured in kannel.conf, then Kannel will resend messages that were not sent yet before the crash. If no such file is configured, then those SMS messages will be lost.
Currently there is no other option than an internal-format Kannel-specific store file. AFAIK also there are no plans to implement a SQL driven store file.

In both of the latest architecture documents (1.2.1 and 1.3.2), the "Better Quality" section of Chapter 6 states that Kannel will lose all SMS messages it has received from an SMSC if it crashes. Yet, when looking over the release notes for development version 1.1.4, it states that Kannel can be configured to store the SMS messages to file until they are processed. Anyone know which is true? On a similar note, if the SMS messages can be stored to file, are there any other options for storage (perhaps a database)? Are these future features or concepts that have yet to be discussed? Thanks. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Helps protect you from nasty viruses. http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
