As I become more educated on what is involved here....

I am sending to cell phones... I am currently using SMTP which I am now
learning can not be used because it isn't secure and (could) involve
multiple hops/storage from server to server. Security is a requirement
as these messages could contain protected patient information.

I am also learning that (I think) SNPP does similar to what you said -
goes directly to the service provider and then to the tower (broadcast),
and finally to the phone.

Thanks,
