Wait a minute, interesting new development!!!

I went into the task manager and killed all processes which had
something to do with vodafone and windows mobile device center (the
windows vista followup of ActiveSync).

The I ran SendMessage again for COM4; look what I got:


Example: Send message from a serial gsm modem.

I had completely failed to realise that my Vodafone UMTS datacard (PCM-
CIA slot) has GSM/SMS functionality as well, which is used by the
vodafone helpdesk for support like sending a new password (this
functionality was used once while I was on the phone with said
helpdesk). It would be fine with me as well if I could use this
facility instead of a mobile phone.

When I run SendMessage with the full functioning vodafone software I
get the dreaded:

Example: Send message from a serial gsm modem.
SMSLib: A Java API library for sending and receiving SMS via a GSM
modem or other supported gateways.
This software is distributed under the terms of the Apache v2.0
License.
Web Site: http://smslib.org
Version: 3.3.3
org.smslib.GatewayException: Comm library exception:
java.lang.RuntimeException: javax.comm.PortInUseException: Port
currently owned by Unknown Windows Application
        at org.smslib.modem.SerialModemDriver.connectPort
(SerialModemDriver.java:92)
        at org.smslib.modem.AModemDriver.connect(AModemDriver.java:110)
        at org.smslib.modem.ModemGateway.startGateway(ModemGateway.java:126)
        at org.smslib.Service$1Starter.run(Service.java:222)


In other words, I must kill the vodafone software in order to have
smslib work, which makes sense.


Then why did I get:

8413 [main] ERROR org.smslib  - GTW: modem.com4: CMS Error 330: Quit
retrying, message lost...
