Re: [FYI] new HTTP SMSC 'generic' system-type

  If you poke around in Mbuni libs, there is code for doing HTTP POST  
(enctype = www-url-encoded and multipart/form-data) handling nicely,  
so you could use that too instead of XML. XML adds the over-head of  
the other side having to parse that rather than merely have to handle  
URL parameters. Just a thought...
