I'm not sure that I understand your question.

I tried sending an email which failed (below) and, later, also a text which
failed which an (obviously) truncated error in the sms text.

I'm hosting on WestHost and a forum there says
"At WestHost sendmail is the MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) and procmail is the
LDA (Local Delivery Agent)."

FWIW, I edited my /etc/aliases file manually because their online site
manager wouldn't let me create a command alias with parentheses in it.
