Further to my posting on this Tuesday,

I shutdown kannel and used AT commands to control my modem.
I used the command AT+CMGL which prints out the SMS's in the modem memory.
I found over 30 messages were in the modem memory. Of the thirty + messages in 
the phone memory all but 3 relate to a problem time on 4th Nov. 

[ Unfortunately, I did not use the AT+CMGL=0 command so I do not know if the 
modem believed that these were processed or not.]

I notice from the time stamp on the second message, that it arrived 2 seconds 
after the first message. In all likelihood it arrived before the second 
message finished processing. Should this cause a problem?

This is on top of the fact that I was still sending messages through the 
cgi-bin/sendsms interface.

The first message is visible in the sms-box.log file. The second and 
subsequent messages are not. I believe that all of these messages relate to a 
time period before I restarted kannel. After I restarted kannel it worked as 
normal until this morning at which time there are 3 new messages which again 
were not passed on to kannel.

For the periods when kannel worked as normal there are records in the 
sms-box.log but no records in the modem store.

Is there a set of circumstances which will cause messages to remain in the 
modem preferred store rather than being processed? If the computer loses the 
notification that there is a message in the modem, does it receive another 
notification the next time a notification is received or does it 
intermittantly check the modem buffers?


Thanks for any help

Kevin
