Hello
I tried sending a delayed sms in format yyyymmddhhmm e.g 201106181535 and the sms is coming right after sending.
I tried 2011-06-18 15:35 and still the sms coming immediately.
What am i doing wrong?

Hi,

Do you have the same problem if you submit from the web
Interface?

It would help to determine if the problem is a system level problem, or a problem related to the formatting of your URL request.

Note: while the web form says to use a format of yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm, any non-numerical characters are ignored, so use the same yyyymmddhhmm format you have been trying to use.

If you also have problems from the web form, check the date/time setting on the PC running NowSMS and verify it is correct.

You said "web Interface". Where is that? I dindt find any form with delayuntil option.
And yes the time is correct.
Is there any log to check for?

I'm using SMPP protocol to connect to host.
My question is when i'm sending delayuntil , is the server sends the sms to the server or is it holding the sms until the specified time?

I am referring to the NowSMS web interface: http://www.nowsms.com/doc/web-menu-interface

It has a delayed delivery option.

Please confirm whether or not you also have a problem using the web form "Send Text Message".

NowSMS holds the message until this delay until time, and then releases it to any upstream connections after this time.

Then it doesn't support the "&DelayUntil=" HTTP parameter either.
