That surprises me.  I know SMS messages can't be queued up awaiting delivery forever, but three days feels a little short to me.  I'd have thought a month would be more appropriate.

And remind us again - how long are they stored for TICSA?

@boosacnoodle I am 100% aware but that is not stored SMS for delivery - TICSA is another thing
