Our family just got new iPhones and my wife is receiving the Text Messages from me and my daughter as email. I check her Message app settings and under Send and Receive it is her phone number. This just started happening today as I previously sent her a text and she received as a text not an email.
She has an iPhone SE 2020. We have iPhone 11.

If you check to ensure that iMessage is activated and Group Messaging is turned on. You may also need to take the message thread that doesn't work and delete it completely on all devices and start over.

Are you sharing Apple IDs? If so, that needs to change. Check the settings for All devices using iMessage and make sure they are all properly activated, and they have the phone numbers set as send & receive. But, if you are sharing Apple IDs, you will continue to have problems. You will need to change to each person having an individual ID and using Family Sharing. See this, Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support
More information learned. The messages that showed up as email for my wife were when I sent the same text to her and my daughter at the same time. When I send a text individually to my wife, it show up as a text.
We are not sharing apple ids. We both have our own. Proper phone numbers are set under send and receive.
iMessage is activated and Group Messaging is turned on for all phones. I deleted the original group messages on all phones.
Will try a new test later.
Sounds good. Take care.
