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.
