I used to have this:
   max-messages = 2
   omit-empty = true

And now after changed it to max-messages = 0 it finally made the trick you are 
right... I failed to read again the docs... I just did't consider that it's 
necessarily to read it again after upgrade my opensmpp, bearerbox, sqlbox to 
latest SVN... but considering that many things can change from one *old* 
version to latest... I should do it... again thanks!

By the way the smsbox log line:  "ERROR: Failed to convert msgdata from charset 
<UTF-8> to <UTF-8>, will leave as is."  is still appearing.. even when I setup 
all my php.ini and inetrnal variables to use UTF-8, also I put this on kannel:  
"alt-charset = UTF-8"

Any idea what causes that?

Thanks again!

Hi Aldo, as you can see from the docs:

"This service grabs any SMS with two words and 'www' as the first
     word, and then does an HTTP request to an URL which is taken from
     the rest of the message. Any result is sent back to the phone
     (or requester), but is truncated to the 160 characters that will
     fit into an SMS message, naturally."

So, the problem you're facing is that kannel is trying to "parse" your
service answer as an SMS, and assuming it's an html, then kannel can't
convert this answer to an SMS hence the error SMS you're receiving.

To avoid this problem your service must not output any answer, then add
this variables to the sms-service group:

max-messages = 0

omit-empty = true



Hope this helps!
