Well, the validity parameter is another issue with me, since my application server is on different timezone, and kannel sends absolute timestamp (2011-05-12 13:01:01) as validity parameter instead of relative timestamp (expiry time = current/submission time+60 secs). I don't seem to find the resolution of it as well, so I have stopped using the validity period thing. Any resolution to this?
