Maybe phpMailer isn't sending the correct headers either. Sometimes all it
takes is one missing header that a system is looking for and it may filter it
as spam or something.
Again, I encourage you to examine the headers from your Thunderbird "good"
email and compare it to your PHP and/or phpMailer headers that are getting
sent. Possibly try to emulate the successful email as much as possible by
copying the headers from a known successful message.
If that doesn't work, then you may contact teleflip or whatever service you're
trying to send text messages to and ask them if they can provide any
information as to why it may not be going through. Never know, might find
someone with half a brain who can help.

I tried using phpMailer and all and it nothing seems to work right. I can
send it fine through thunderbird but it just seems to complain via php. Not
sure why.
