NAME

       gammu-smsd-files - gammu-smsd(1) backend using filesystem as a message storage

DESCRIPTION

       FILES  backend  stores all data on a filesystem in folders defined by configuration (see gammu-smsdrc for
       description of configuration options).

RECEIVING OF MESSAGES

       Received  messages  are  stored  in  a  folder  defined  by   configuration.   The   filename   will   be
       IN<date>_<time>_<serial>_<sender>_<sequence>.<ext>,                      for                      example
       IN20021130_021531_00_+45409000931640979_00.txt.

       Explanation of fields:

       <date> date in format YYYYMMDD

       <time> time in format HHMMSS

       <sender>
              sender number

       <serial>
              order of a message (in case more messages were received at same time), in format NN

       <sequence>
              part of the message for multipart messages, in format NN

       <ext>  txt for text message, 8-bit messages are stored with bin extension, smsbackup for gammu-smsbackup

       The content of the file is content of the message and the format is defined  by  configuration  directive
       InboxFormat (see gammu-smsdrc).

TRANSMITTING OF MESSAGES

       Transmitted  messages  are read from a folder defined by configuration. The filename should be one of the
       following formats:

       • OUT<recipient>.<ext>

       • OUT<priority>_<recipient>_<serial>.<ext>

       • OUT<priority><date>_<time>_<serial>_<recipient>_<note>.<ext>

       Explanation of fields:

       <recipient>
              recipient number where to send message

       <priority>
              an alphabetic character (A-Z) A = highest priority

       <ext>  txt for normal text SMS, smsbackup for gammu-smsbackup

       <note> any arbitrary text which is ignored

       For text messages, you can additionally append flags to extension:

          d      delivery report requested

          f      flash SMS

          b      WAP bookmark as name,URL

       Other fields are same as for received messages.

       For example  OUTG20040620_193810_123_+4512345678_xpq.txtdf  is  a  flash  text  SMS  requesting  delivery
       reports.

       SMSes  will be transmitted sequentially based on the file name. The contents of the file is the SMS to be
       transmitted (in Unicode or standard character set).

       The contents of the file is the SMS to be transmitted (in Unicode or standard  character  set),  for  WAP
       bookmarks it is split on as Name,URL, for text messages whole file content is used.

       Please  note  that if file is not in Unicode, encoding is detected based on locales, which do not have to
       be configured if SMSD is running from init script. If this is your case, please add locales definition to
       init script.
