Sending SMS via libgnokii

[Peter Koch]

Dear Pawel:

Thank's very much for your answer.

My application is a unix daemon that receives messages from
different sources and inserts these messages into an Oracle
Database. Some high-priority messages are sent out to our
administrators mobile phones and that's where I'm using libgnokii.

 I will try to "ping" the phone. That should be faster than closing
and reopening the whole stack.
