I haven't used smsserver. We are using our own custom .NET system that is similar (queues messages in a database). The only time I have seen problems with outgoing messages is when using a prepaid SIM and not having enough airtime to send the message. We are using pdu mode for sending the messages with no problems with this modem. Are you sending more than 160 characters? Can you send messages when you use the sendmessages example program instead of smsserver?
