If the destination network is GSM, you can not submit more than 160 text characters or 140 binary octets per SMS. The GSM standard clearly says this and it also says how to encode more than 160 chars into multipart messages. If your SMSC does that internally, fine, we do it already so the SMSC should simply accept our already correctly encoded packets and delivers them. If it doesn't do this correctly, blame the SMSC vendor. Apparently your SMSC belongs to the category non-standard which Kannel is not supposed to support.
