Hi,

A few months ago, I did submit a patch for bearerbox to make it work with relative instead of absolute time. However, it was rejected, since as i learned since, many SMPP SMScs do not support relative time. All of them, however, support absolute time. You should handle that part from your application.

Subject: Setting message validity - Error


Hi,


I am trying to send SMS to SMSC via kannel with validity of 1 minute. However, when doing submit_sm, kannel is translating 1 minute into exact time of the day (110904075503000+) and sending to SMSC. As SMSC is on different timezone (server time+5 hours), it rejects the message after looking at expiry timestamp (which is already past).


Is it possible in kannel to send validity in terms of "current_time + 60_seconds", so that SMSC does the expiry calculation by itself?


Regards,
Hamza
