Yes; this is the same sticking point I hit; you can't use an SMS email 
gateway, because the SMSC mangles the message format in order to prevent this 
and other hacks.  (Imagine anyone sending you an email and controlling this 
and other things on your phone!)  Your best bet is to try and find an 
internet SMS company that can control the MWI for your provider.
