DESCRIPTION
       Kannel  is  an  WAP  and SMS gateway.  WAP is short for Wireless Application Protocol, and is used to implement hypertext based services on
       mobile phones.  SMS is short for Short Message Service, and is used to send and recive short (up to  160  characters)  text  messages  with
       mobile phones.  SMS can also be used to implement simple text based services on mobile phones.

       Kannel  consists of three programs, usually run as daemons: bearerbox, wapbox, and smsbox.  They implement the connection to the phone (SMS
       or UDP), the WAP protocol stack, and the SMS based services, respectively.
