Hello John,

The message queue in Diafaan SMS Server does not offer such refined control over the message sending process.

Normally, a message is sent when it is in front of the message queue and one of the gateways is available (and allowed) to send the message. The gateway routing options (which gateway can send which messages) can be set in the 'Gateways' setting of each connector.

If you want to control the message sending process more precise, you can use the priority setting for each message. The priority is a number from 0 til 2^63-1 where a higher number means that the message is put more in front of the queue than messages with a lower number priority. What you could do is to give the first 10 messages of each client priority 2^63-1, the next 10 messages of each client priority 2^63-2 etc. It takes a long time to get to priority 0 and you could reset the priority number each time the queue is empty to make sure that you never get to priority 0.

I am not sure if this solution would work properly in practice but it is the only solution I can think of.
