Time stamp on SMS delivery receipts

BrianD

Anybody know how these work? I sent a message from Vodafone to Meteor at 19:00. The Meteor phone is roaming abroad and I get a pending message for a couple of hours. Then a delivery receipt arrives saying that the delivery time is 19:01 i.e almost immediately after the message was originally sent. Would this be correct or do the operators now use the sent time as the default delivery time or how does it work?

I've often had a delay in delivery reports coming through .. evident when I've sent a text to someone in the same room and the reports arrived an hour or two later. Maybe this was it?
