Hi, It depends on the error condition. Originally, the NowSMS logic was to keep retrying, regardless of the error condition. But we found this caused problems for people, because in some cases, an HTTP script might have a problem with a particular character occurring in a message ... causing the script to error out. And a continued retry of the message could cause the script to process the message multiple times. Subsequently, we made some modifications, and in current versions of NowSMS, the logic works like this: If the web server is down or no connection can be established to the web server, the message will be retried until a proper connection can be established. If the web server does not return a valid HTTP response, the message will be retried until a valid HTTP response is received. If the web server returns a valid HTTP response indicating an error condition, the message will not be retried. It will remain in the SMS-IN directory indefinitely with a file extension of ".BAD". -bn | |||

No, unfortunately it does not look like there is an option to set this attribute. I've submitted an engineering request to get a variable added for setting this parameter. It will most likely take a couple of weeks. -bn | |||

Follow-up ... an interim update for NowSMS 2006 has been posted which includes additional provisioning parameters for setting these attributes. The update is available for download at http://www.nowsms.com/download/20060824.zip. The following change has been applied: * SMS User Account Provisioning via HTTP URL: Add additional parameter support for setting the "Web Menu Options" account attribute. This attribute is set via a new "WebOptions" variable. Valid values for the "WebOptions" variable include "All", "TextOnly", "SMSMMS", "SMSWAPMM", and "SMSMMSWAPMM". | |||
