Re: Messages get lost on the way to bearerbox because of /status.txt?

Hi Wilfried,

thanks for the hint. No idea yet from my side. Did you had a chance to track 
issues more down?

You say msgs get lost while passed from smsbox to bearerbox. Now, if bearerbox 
would not accept the msg within the TCP stream between smsbox and bearerbox it 
would not send a ack'ing msg to smsbox for it, right? Hence smsbox should 
resend. I'm not aware now how smsbox handles this. We'll have to review.

Of course it is not acceptable that bearerbox "blocks" incoming msgs from smsbox 
side, if this is the case.

BTW, it would be great if you submit a bug report on this with as much details 
as you have, via http://bugs.kannel.org/

Thanks.

Stipe
