I post a message some weeks ago about how to automatically retry to send an SMS using a GSM modem when the SMSC connector (CIMD) rejects the emission.
In other words by default I would like to send SMS with my first connector and if (and only if) this rejects my SMS I would like to retry using a GSM modem... I see that some updates about the routing mechanism ok kannel was done recently, does this updates help me to resolve my problem?
