configurable max retries forgotten in 1.41 =(

To be frank, I'm amazed that this issue hasn't gotten more attention
over the years given the default behavior of retrying immediately, and
indefinitely. I don't know of any SMSC's that take kindly to that kind
of behavior.

I proposed a patch back in 7/05 that fixed this for smpp, followed by a
more appropriate patch submitted (10/26/05) and later committed
(11/8/05) by Alexander Malysh that fixed the problem for all protos.

Is there a consensus that this is a critical issue? How is not a
critical issue? What are the chances that we can get another release in
the very near future?

As always kudos to the devs, this really is a monster of a project. So
many modalities, I can only imagine how difficult it is to keep up with
it all.
