It would be nice if it became possible to pre-configure which connector that
should be used for sending messages according to the phone number/country code
of the recipient.
Preferred it should ship with a default setting, an automatic mode that uses
the regular mobile carrier for all domestic SMSes.
SMSes/phone numbers could be regarded as domestic when they are without a
leading "+" (maybe also "00")
and also for phone numbers with country code that match the country of the
subscribers SIM card.
Maybe by detecting the ID of the subscribes carrier / SIM card or comparing
against the SMSC (SMS service centre).
When roaming there should be a different behaviour in default setting where it
might prompt how to send, as the whole price scheme change abroad.
For non-default settings, it would be nice to be able to configure match
patterns and a corresponding means of sending/connector.
The match patterns should not be limited to matching of country codes.
E.g. one could configure that all SMSs for phone numbers prefixed with country
code "+47" should go by the FishText connector. But if one further more
configures a longer match pattern, could be partial or full phone numbers, e.g.
"+47ABCDEFGH". Then SMSes that match e.g. "+47ABCDEFGH" could be configured to
go by regular carrier SMS. The most specific (longest) pattern should "win".
This would be helpfull e.g. because FishText (connector provider) fails to
deliver messages for some subscriber numbers. And also useful in situations
where one has special deals for sending SMSs to subscribers within their own
carrier.
