Many thanks for the suggestion Alex.
However, we've now (only just) solved this. The machine didn't have an external IP address allocated. Apparently while Kannel could get out through the firewall any responses didn't know where to come back to. (I'm just glad that I don't have to manage the firewalls and security!) If I'd waited long enough I'd have seen time-out errors logged for each of the binds.

We're attempting to get Kannel installed in the Amazon cloud. We had a functioning installation, though it needed some more tweaking, that could send messages. This was then moved onto a VPC. There was no change in the Kannel config files. After the move Kannel completely failed to bind to the SMSC despite the various ports being opened. Does anyone have any suggestions about what needs to be done to allow Kannel to communicate as expected?
