Some messages that were supposed to be sent via SMS are not delivered because
SMS has a character limitation. Since this limitation also depends on the
driver used with SMS::Send, it would be good to have a system preference to
choose the message length. This way, even messages that are too long could
still be sent (but they would be cut).

Example with a limitation of 120 characters:

“According to our records, you have at least one item that is overdue.
The following item(s) are overdue:
- Book 1
- Book 2
- Book 3“

will become :

“According to our records, you have at least one item that is overdue.
The following item(s) are overdue:
- Book 1
- Book...“
