when you call smsbox use.. http://...../sendsms?.........&smsc=
In your Kannel config, you must allocate smsc-ids to each SMSC. These dont 
have to be unique; this is usefull to group SMSCs.
Then in the Kannel config you either use: denied-smsc-id OR 
allowed-smsc-id. If using denied-smsc-id no messages with those smsc-ids 
set in sendsms will be routed to that SMSC. Alternatively if you use 
allowed-smsc-id in the kannel conf then only messages with that particular 
smsc_id will be sent through this SMSC.

eg.
group=smsc
smsc-id=A
denied-smsc-id=X;Y;Z

group=smsc
smsc-id=X
allowed-smsc-id=X

will allow any message with smsc-id other than X,Y,Z to be sent through SMSC A
will only allow messages with smsc-id set to X be sent through SMSC X
