Yes it's tested and used. Take a look to cvs user guide
(http://www.kannel.org/download/kannel-userguide-snapshot/userguide.html)
deferred number (minutes) Optional. If given, the SMS center will
postpone the message to be delivered at now plus this many minutes.
Note: you must have your Kannel box time synchronized with the SMS
Center.
Which version of kannel are you using?
If you are using cvs head please post the smpp trace. if not please
upgrade to head.

Hi all,
Has anyone tried using the "deferred" parameter with an SMPP link?
User-Guide puts a question mark on it, so I assume that means "not
tested".
I've tried with some SMPP links we have without success: the messages
get delivered without any delay, blatantly ignoring the "deferred"
parameter setting.
Is that a problem related to Kannel, the SMPP protocol or just the
SMSC ignoring it?
On the other hand, specially if this is something related to
protocols, it would be cool to have some sort of "soft-deferring",
meaning Kannel doing the deferral (on the store-file perhaps). This
would work on all kind of links ('at' modems included) since Kannel
would be keeping the messages until delivery time.
Thank you in advance,
