Hi Iain,
The internal dlr storage is called "internal" for a reason I dont know,
I assume the developers called it in such way because it keeps
the internal Kannel statuses of the message in the
internal Kannel queue, as SENT, FAILED, QUEUED.
It does not keep the statuses of the message received by Kannel from the SMSC.
Next, the value of dlr-mask,
from the manual:
Optional. Request for delivery reports with the state of the sent message. The
value is a bit mask composed of:
1: Delivered to phone,
2: Non-Delivered to Phone,
4: Queued on SMSC,
8: Delivered to SMSC,
16: Non-Delivered to SMSC.
example:
in case you want Kannel to request from the SMSC for all the above statuses,
you summarize them: dlr-mask=1+2+4+8+16=31
in case you want only Delivered to phone and Non-Delivered to Phone, you set
dlr-mask=1+2=3
so if you set dlr-mask=3, the dlr-url will be called by Kannel only when Kannel
received
the statuses of Delivered to phone and Non-Delivered to Phone from the smsc.
in case your dlr-mask is set to 31, Kannel will call the dlr-url when have them
from the SMSC.
Why Kannel uses the same escape codes for the dlr-url and the get-url ?
Its a question for the developers list i believe :)
But I assume because these escape code are used for the same values.
see the bellow log file from debug mode of the dlr.pgsql.php
the values of the status field are the same as the codes of the statuses uses
to compose the dlr-mask
