Hi guys We're busy changing a part of our system for premium messaging and were wondering if there is any way of having the retry attempt parameters at a bind level? I've looked in the documentation and can see that we can do this at the [SMSGW] section of the SMSGW.ini file, but not at bind level. Is it possible to do this? Since I'm on the topic, although I think I might be pushing it slightly, is there a possibility of having this as part of the HTTP request that is submitted to NowSMS? Either scenario would work, but like to know if this is possible to do? Thanks Chris | |||

Hi Chris, Sorry, all of the retry parameters apply to all binds. It would be a good idea to allow the global settings to be overridden on a bind-by-bind basis. I can submit this is a future request for engineering. I'm not sure that I follow how this would be implemented at an HTTP level. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Hi Des Thanks for replying back. Regarding the HTTP level, we have something in mind along the lines of having an additional parameter that can be added to the querystring, e.g. &MaxRetry=XX for any particular message that we submit to NowSMS. Is this possible? We are quite happy to work with both scenarios, but it seems that implementing it on a bind-by-bind level will be easier? Thanks Chris | |||

Hi Chris, We did some preliminary investigation and supporting the bind specific parameter overrides appears to be a somewhat simple change (famous last words). Message specific handling is considerably more involved. I can't promise anything real quickly, but I'm working to get this in the engineering queue. -- Des | |||

Hi Des By no means trying to push you guys for anything, but I thought I'd ask if there's any update on the query above? Thanks Chris | |||

Hi Chris, It's been implemented, but it is stuck in testing along with some other minor changes. I'm hopeful that we'll see it available as an interim download Monday or Tuesday. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||

Chris, Apologies ... I just realised that I had neglected to follow up on this. There have been a few updates posted that include this change. The retry settings can be specified under the SMSGW.INI section header for each connection to override global settings.
I just posted [bad link, see updated post below] which includes this logic. -- Des NowSMS Support | |||
