I use a DLR to invoke an HTTP-GET when the message is delivered/deleted or
whatnot. The bearerbox handles whether or not the message is actually
delivered to the SMSC, and thus should give you a DLR report on that
message when the smsc connection does become available.
See dlrmask and dlrurl in the kannel.org documentation. Since you can
write a script to handle the DLR URL GET, you can put it in a database or
update a row in a DB based on the ID you put in your DLR URL.
With my messages, the DLR URL looks like this:
http://host/dlr.php?smsid=%d&; some other stuff I can't remember.
Before I "send" the message to the smsbox I insert a row with an SMS id
(auto-incremented). That is the ID I include in the dlrurl variable I
pass to sendsms.
