send sms http connection

Hello,
I am using the cygwin port of Kannel.
I have an application which uses the kannel sms push interface.
This client creates a socket, with the right port ofcourse.  This succeeds.

When the application calls the connect for the socket, this also succeeds
and 
kannel writes a message stating 
Creating HTTPClient for <ipaddress>

When the application calls 'send' on the same socket with the necessary
text,
immediately kannel shows, althought the socket itself does not throw any
error.
Destroying HTTPClient for <ipaddress>

I dont think the http client is wrong, i am able to get other web pages
using my http client.
Can anyone help me in this please??

Thank you and best regards
Anu
