Hello Tania.
I use the below settings on my kannel.conf file

group = smsc
smsc = smpp
smsc-id = <myprovider>
host = <ip address>
port = <smsc port>
receive-port = <smsc port>
smsc-username = <username>
smsc-password = <password>
source-addr-ton = 0
source-addr-npi = 1
dest-addr-ton = 1
#dest-addr-np = 1
bind-addr-ton = 0
bind-addr-npi = 1
system-type = "VMA"
enquire-link-interval = 30
reconnect-delay = 10
throughput = 20
validityperiod = 1340
alt-charset = "UTF-8"


I don't use alt_dcs and set charset field on sms_send table to UTF-8 also.

Of course, any Greek character like Δ must be written %10 to msgdata field.
Personally, I encode every single character to its gsm value. Always with % in front of it.

DB field and table encoding is utf-8 also.

Try these settings and follow the thread with title
SMS from sqlbox - Problem when sending more that 160 char with greek letters
on May 2011.
I think this will help you.

Best Regards
Mike Nakos
