Well, Q is empty after restart. The logs could say more, for sure,  did not
check them. I will try simulate and post result, if any. 

But I am sure that the pending messages was not sended (mainly due the fact
that was modem and so, a slow decreasing of Q. Fifty messages pending,
reset, zero message pending. Just like that...

regards
Dino

Assunto: Re: Basic queue management - loss of message

If I understand you correctly, if you restart bearerbox, or the smsc, it is 
expected that the SMS will be processed and gone. The only sure way to know 
about the fate of the sms after restart, is to look for it both in 
bearerbox's access logs and the Q.

BR,
Nikos
