It's mean that the smsd still working and RefreshSMS is always running. 
But, when i inserting a new sms request to mysql database, that sms 
status are always pending. I think i need to stop the smsd and then 
start it again. And it works ... sms sent to the recipient number. This 
things happen on Nokia 3120, and Nokia 5110. So, i decided to make a 
little bash scripting that always stop a smsd and start it again after a 
few minutes to handle that unwanted circumstances. And it works.

Yes, smsd logs remote number and error. Because i'm using the mysql 
database so the remote number and error stored in the outbox table. But, 
if smsd didn't success update sms status on outbox table where i can 
find this log? Is that logs on ~/.gnokii-error file ? I think it's nice 
if this circumstance happen then there are a log file i can check to 
evaluating the problems. Or, may it has but i didn't know.
