I ran into similar situations myself, as when I hit the url to send a msg, I'd get "accepted for delivery" with no notification that there's eleventy million msg's already in queue waiting to go out..
What I ended up doing is writing a world accessible page, that turned around and hit the internal admin interface and get a status report and relay that back to my system that hits kannel.. so that way the system who's sending the msg's can get some visibility into kannel's queue's and can stop sending if the queue gets to high. If you want, i can post the php script I used to facilitate this. Bear in mind, I am no kannel expert, as my ribbings on this list will illustrate, so there may be a much better way to talk to kannel, but that quick and easy hack worked for me. The kannel interface url to get the status is: $]curl "http://localhost:13000/status?password=yourpass"; assuming your admin password is "yourpass" ** sample response is: Kannel bearerbox version `1.4.3'.
