Hi Stipe,

I've just tested the patch and its working as intended :-)

This is a case when the SMSC transmits the remaining credit on TLVs
on the SUBMIT_SM_RESP and until now there was no way to retrieve that
information unless for a grep of the logs (nasty stuff).

I'll be checking if this patch gets to the main trunk.

Thanks a lot :-)

Best regards,
Paulo Correia
