I know it's a bit annoying to enter all user settings again after every update, that why I tried to make it last when updating from 0.7-1 to 0.7-2, but it seems the code failed (don't no why yet).
Release 0.7-2 was only a bug release so user settings are the same. But if new future options are released the config file has to be deleted & reinitialized with a default template otherwise smscon won't work...


In upcoming release 0.8 I have added a four new user setting (yes, the config file will be deleted again, sorry) and some bugfixes;

1) now users can select if they want to send all reply messages from smscon by SMS or by email (just like all location (GPS) reply messages are selectable by SMS or by email). BUT: when SIM card is changed in phone by non-authorized one, smscon always sends a SMS and no email.

2) resending of reply messages (if no cell reception/data network/whatever) is now user settable in config file.

3) bugfixes in original resending code part in smscon_daemon(would crash when used and/or not work at all)

New options in "smscon_config" file:

Code:
# Method of reply message sending
# (method to send reply messages: 'sms' / 'email')
MESSAGESEND       = 'email'

# Resend message settings
# (method to send reply messages: 'sms' / 'email')
MESSAGESEND       = 'email'
# (enable resending of reply message after 15 minutes if sending fails, until succesfull sending)
ENABLERESEND      = 'yes'
# (resend waiting time in minutes)
RESENDTIME        = 15
# (maximum retries of resending)
MAXRESEND         = 10
@ Saturn: Do you have some spare time to implement this in SMSCON-editor ?
