    I get:

    Error: One of the message recipients does not subscribe to this
    messaging service.

    Not sure what that means, seeing as I can email to
    Sprint#@messaging.sprintpcs.com no problem.

    That's not email. It's text messaging to the phone. If you send a TM via an
    email program like Outlook, OE, Netscape, whatever, the header will be part
    of the message, and will use up some of the 160 characters allowed in a TM.
    I just sent myself one via Outlook, and was only able to get 90 or so
    characters.

    If one goes to messaging.sprintpcs.com to send a TM, they can include the
    whole 160 characters. BTW, spaces and punctuation count as characters as
    well.
