Some SMPP servers send you in the ID a hex encoded number in the submit response and then as decimal encoded integer in the deliery message. don't ask me why.

Andreas, 

you have breaked the introduced SMPP module feature to define in which 
number bases the SMSC is returning IDs. 

See Nisan's patch and by commit at: 

http://www.kannel.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gateway/gw/smsc/smsc_smpp.c.diff?r1=1.6&r2=1.7&sortby=date 

You will have to simply configure your smsc group for the SMPP account 
accordingly and this is *not* an smpp bug! 




Now you confuse me. According to the specs of SMPP 3.4, the message ID comes as C string. So why should we care if it is hex or decimal? The length can be even up to 65 characters. 

We have two SMPP links which both didn't work because of that. The patch I did takes the message_id "as is" and stores it "as is". What's wrong with that approach? Why should I care if the SMSC uses hex or decimal digits for its message ID? 

Maybe you can tell me what you see on your SMPP links.
