For historical reporting, the SMSOUT-yyyymmdd.LOG (year month day) files record details about SMS messages sent out.

The logs are fairly straight-forward. I've been looking for a link that explains the format. I know there has got to be a better description somewhere, but this should get you started: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/5804.html

One note however ... e-mail to SMS is recorded slightly different in the logs, because there is not NowSMS account information associated with the transaction. In place of the IP address, it has the text "SMTP sender" before the e-mail address that submitted the message.

In most scenarios, I would recommend the accounting callback interface (http://www.nowsms.com/tag/accounting-callbacks). However, those callbacks are not well suited for an environment that makes heavy use of SMTP to SMS. They work well with HTTP, SMPP and the other protocols.

I'm sorry, but those log files are the only record provided.
