Sir,
How to handle the following scenario...
If the SMSC responds with a submit_sm_response with an error and the error code is Throttling error, said message shall be resent after a configurable time. It is recommended that the resend time be 10 seconds.
Note that resending will occur every time the SMSC responds with this error code, possibly causing a message to be resent several times.

Thanks and regards
Shiby

Shiby,

By default, if a throttling error is returned, NowSMS will wait 5 seconds, and then retry the next message in the queue (eventually coming back to the message that originally triggered the throttling error).

It is possible to alter or remove this delay with the following parameter in the [SMSGW] section of SMSGW.INI:

SMPPThrottleErrorDelay=##

## specifies a number of seconds to wait after a throttling error is received. 0 disables the wait.
