Summary0011108: Error message when an SMS cannot be delivered (bc of invalid number) should be subtle
DescriptionThe way SMS auth delivery issues (for whatever reason) are shown now is too extreme; like in other cases in the backoffice SPA, e.g., when trying to enter a number without the '+' in the beginning, an alternative would be to just make sure a text is put under the field, making clear, sth failed.

Covering the cases we had today, where a merchant just by accident flipped a digit, or we ourselves managed to enter wrong numbers, we should just say sth along the line of:

"SMS delivery failed. Please go back and check your number."
TagsNo tags attached.

Example of how this looks like.

Also 0011103, where just an excess in whitespace characters is in place for a phone number, can be changed.
