nope, smsc abstraction layer has nothing todo with message body. Message 
body should be always UTF-8 within bearerbox. Where you could iconv is 
the smsbox where we communicate to/from user. All boxes that would like 
to send SMS must have message body converted to UTF-8 when sending it to 
bearerbox.
