We're also connected to Smart, and don't seem to experience the kind of slowness you observe. Our service peaked at some 200 messages per second once, without breaking a sweat. Our SMSC config looks something like this: group = smsc smsc = cimd2 smsc-id = smart-outgoing host = x.x.x.x port = pppp keepalive = 60e smsc-username = xxxxxxxxx smsc-password = ********* sender-prefix = "" group = smsc smsc = cimd2 smsc-id = smart-incoming host = x.x.x.x port = pppp keepalive = 60 smsc-username = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx smsc-password = ********* sender-prefix = "" Don't see much difference between your config and mine. Perhaps your bandwidth to Smart is not all it could be, or you have a firewall that's rate limiting your connection? Apparently, a misconfigured Cisco firewall once totally blocked the SMSC connection of one of our client's servers, perhaps the same thing could be happening to you. 3-5 messages per second translates to roughly 16 kbps of bandwidth given the overhead involved with the CIMD2 protocol, so if you have dangerously close to that amount you can't really expect better performance than that. Try talking to the MVAS department; they should be able to tell you what they see from their side of the connection. -- dido Sans les mathematiques on ne penetre point au fond de la philosophie.
