Message Send failed. This appears if the message could not
be transmitted because of technical reasons such as satellite
malfunction, signal degradation, or no reply from LES. Try to
transmit the message again.

Message Send rejected. This appears when the LES rejects
the message because of non-technical reasons such as unpaid
subscriber's fee.

Message Send pending.This appears when the circuits at the
LES are busy. Your message will be transmitted when a circuit
becomes clear.
