Sadly that's not possible. The SMS protocol is store-and-forward and session-oriented, so it does not provides any session information (as USSD does). In 160 bytes there's not too much room for that, I'm afraid...
So, you are on your own if you want to track user's messages. The ony (partial) solution to this is to implemente some kind of time-based sessions on the users. i.e: All messages sent to a given short number starting with a given keyword with less than X minutes between them are considered part of the same "session".
Hope it helps,
Alejandro.

As far as I can tell, yes and no. It would work only if the user is including the
original message as the reply, and it means that the user will actually see this
message ID somewhere in the message.
Additionally, some phones are not proposing include on reply, although they
usually all have a Forward function instead.
I really wish there was some kind of link between an MO and MT but that's
not part of current SMS specs.
Maybe WAP push is a better option for that.

users@kannel.org SMS Headers
Hey all.. Is it possible to embed a message ID within a header, so that
if a user replies, a thread can be maintained?
As a secondary question, has anyone used a Motorola v400 with Kannel?
Thanks
David
