--- Comment #1 from Lari Taskula <larit at student.uef.fi> ---
A more detailed explanation for the reports and delivery notes.

Our SMS Gateway provider has a two-step delivery success response. When sending
the HTTP request from our SMS::Send driver, our SMS Gateway provider will
immediately respond if the message is placed for delivery OR the following
error messages:
 - unknown error
 - invalid recipient (phone# syntax is invalid)
 - duplicate recipient (same phone# is given multiple times)
 - unallowed recipient (non-mobile/foreign phone#)

This is the first step to gather delivery notes from SMS Gateway provider. With
Bug 14791 we are able to throw Exceptions from SMS::Send driver. I propose we
throw an exception (e.g. Koha::Exception::SMSDeliveryFailure) with an accurate
description of the error. The exception will be forwarded all the way to
C4::Letters::_send_message_by_sms() where we can set the status of the message
to 'failed' and add the delivery note accordingly.

However, if the initial request was successful and the provider has accepted it
for delivery, we will move to the second phase of the delivery.

Second phase occurs after the delivery is complete on the provider's end. They
will send us a request with appropriate information of the state of the
delivery and an error message if the delivery was failed. For the second phase
we should use REST API.
