Thanks but so have a thousand other people at this point. It looks
like Google's sol'n was to move the confirmation code to the subject
line, but for some reason they still put it after a bunch of text, so
someone in between GMail and the SMS gateway is truncating the subject
line as well. I've seen posts on this subject that it is something to
do with Bell Canada (that I would not doubt it in the least, they
really are fully equipped idiots).

So even if they 'fix' the issue for custom domains, it won't help me
unless they move the confirmation code to the beginning of the
text/subject.
