Kannel also storing/dumbing the SMS in store-file. If that part is modified to store in such a manner so that the clients can access it.
Yes, but that serves as a non-volatile store for the messages until they are handled ie. passed along. It's internal storage for Kannel.
But since the storage place is custom made every time
Kannel Group can make it as std like /var/spool/sms/mynumber. I think, this is make kannel more useful.
Well, (I'm guessing here - don't know how all the others use Kannel) since most users of Kannel use it as a plain gateway to pass lots of messages to some application and back, there has not been very dire need to integrate any sms-like-email thingy to the core Kannel, which has remained pretty clean.
Now, in the spirit of open source, you could write an application that handles SMSs as email, and reads them from db or some flat file... And release it with instructions where to store the messages and how so your wonderful app can handle them :)
