Thanks Julien for the document, it has some good info, it would be nice to see it complete the inbound SMS also.

It looks like that what matters here is the encoding settings in Kannel, but if I set the encoding to some value, does that mean all the incoming and outgoing messages will be treated as if they were using that certain encoding? What I'm trying to say is, if my system is expecting any kind of encoding (can be 7-bit, 8-bit or 16-bit) what is the good practice when configuring Kannel? And the same for outgoing.

Thanks.

I think the Unicode must be supported at:
1- your programs.
2- database fields.
3- kannel.
4- for Linux, I don't think it's important

Hello,

Thanks for the info.

One more question if I may and maybe it's irrelative but as you have
tested it I appreciate if you can answer me. For the Unicode messages, do I
have to have support for the language in the OS (e.g. Arabic support on
Linux)?

Although it's isn't a complicated thing to have, but I'm asking just to
have information about it.

Thanks.

Hello,

1- yes ( I've tested the arabic, the sms limited to 70 char or less, it
depends ).
2- yes, kannel will take care of this ( divide MT sms and concatenate MO
sms ).

Hello everyone,

I'm using the latest version of Kannel (as for now 1.4.3) and want to use it to connect to SMSC over SMPP. I don't have SMPP for now so I appreciate
if someone can answer my following questions:

1. Does Kannel support Unicode SMS over SMPP (Arabic, Chinese ... etc.
SMS)?
2. If the answer of the first question is yes, does Kannel support
Unicode multi-part SMS (divide and un-divide long SMS)

Thanks
