I'm old fashioned and don't own an MMS-enabled phone, but phone numbers are generally 12 numbers long if in the standard international form, prefixed with a "+". I just sent myself an SMS-to-email with Vodafone Italy and hit these rules: X-Spam-Status: No, score=2.532 tagged_above=-999 required=3.5 tests=[BAYES_00=-2.599, DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE=0.2, FORGED_RCVD_HELO=0.135, FROM_ENDS_IN_NUMS=2.53, FROM_LOCAL_HEX=1.305, NO_REAL_NAME=0.9 while the sender was [EMAIL PROTECTED] Take a survey of how your local providers format senders and write a set of rules accordingly.

That way real MMS spam will still get points from other rules.
