Sms4Domino uses SmsLib for sending and receiving SMS messages. Each individual
communication channel (e.g. serial modem) is defined via a Gateway document in the configuration
database.
Without at least one active Gateway document Sms4Domino will not be able to start.
Sms4Domino supports different gateway types (called Gateway Family): serial modems, IP modems,
Internet SMS service providers, ... Gateways may be outbound - sending SMS messages from
Domino to the rest of the world - or inbound - receiving SMS messages from anywhere in the world.
A gateway is linked to exactly one Sms4Domino instance.
The settings in the Gateway documents are read into memory when Sms4Domino starts. If you need
to make changes to any of the settings you will have to quit and start the Sms4Domino application.
