Or the secondary port they expose is just useless for such work. Sierra
secondary ports usually have a very limited AT command set, and probably
they want all the work to be done through the CnS port which we don't
support.

The E367 in QMI mode, at least, doesn't include the WMS (messaging) QMI
service, so no SMS messaging through QMI. We could definitely fallback
to the AT-command based SMS messaging, but that's not implemented yet in
ModemManager.

Would love to see those logs, wherever they are :)


Also, MBIM devices won't do SMS messaging yet, that also needs to get done.
