Fwd: SMPP not reconnecting

Having had a look at the code I think I have made a mistake in what  
connection-timeout setting is for.

I read it to mean that if kannel did not send any messages within the  
timeout then it may disconnect until a message is queued ready to be  
sent, then it could re-connect. Hence I set this to 0 to disable it.

However I think that this really means how long to wait when no  
response is received from the SMSC before the connection gets  
disconnected and reconnected. Is my latest understanding correct? in  
which case I should set it back to the default and all will be well.

Regards

Ben
