Hi All,

I'm using Kannel for 3 or 4 mounts now and every week I check for a patch or
new version fixing this absolutely basic issue:

If you stop a gateway all messages queued are lost!

So I ask you: if the connection with operator is lost during the sending
process, what options do you have? I mean, you check out the box and see
that you have 498 messages to send yet. The connection with that
specifically operator is gone... And so what?  What can be done?

Of course this does not happens often, otherwise would be impossible to use
Kannel. But for those who use modems, I think the problem could be far
bigger. A pool of 10 modems receive 5,000 messages to send. If one of them
freeze, the correct would be not redistribute the remaining messages to the
others? 

For short: is not possible NOT LOOSE the messages queued when stop/restart a
gateway or bearerbox/smsbox ??? Does anyone know a patch to this?

Thanks in advance,

Dino
