the 'binfo' field is an abstracted billing identifier/info field, which 
is handled differently on each of the the lower SMSC protocol layers.

I.e. for SMPP what you get his this:

     /* Set the service type of the outgoing message. We'll use the config
      * directive as default and 'binfo' as specific parameter. */
     if (octstr_len(msg->sms.binfo)) {
         /* SMPP v5.0 has an own TLV for billing information */
     	if (smpp->version == 0x50) {
     		pdu->u.submit_sm.billing_identification = 
octstr_duplicate(msg->sms.binfo);
     	} else {
         	pdu->u.submit_sm.service_type = octstr_duplicate(msg->sms.binfo);
     	}
     } else {
     	pdu->u.submit_sm.service_type = octstr_duplicate(smpp->service_type);
     }

so in a typical SMPP v3.3 or v3.4 session the value in 'binfo' is passed 
as submit_sm.service_type value.
