Hi, I have been scanning the user doco and reading the mail archives, but havent been able to find an answer . I hope that someone on the list can set me straight. We have set up kannel to channel MO SMS's to a 3rd parties web application servers. Which works quite well. The target http server has other users apart from our sms gateway, and we occassionally have incoming messages blocked from being delivered because of connection limits being reached on the target. Obviously there may be various other resource or operational reasons why our attempts to transfer sms's to a system not under our control could fail (in essence we get a 4xx, 5xx http status reply, or no response at all) . What we require to happen in this circumstance is not to send a delivery report to the sending phone number reporting the failure , but for the smsbox to queue the message and retry posting it a later date (i.e a store & forward mechanism) and then just expire quietly after a designated retry period. Is this possible with the existing kannel system or am i up for some late night coding to my own sms-box extensions ? There appears to be a qeueing facility for the reverse operation of sending sms's submitted to an smsbox via http. So there is a message storing mechanism that might be used . But I see no way to key into that based on a http response code. The sms-box can handle http redirect responses (30x) autonomously, so i have some hope that I could configure/extend kannel to respond appropriately to other http request response code.
Thanks for your input in advance Peter Farmer
