When my mother text me, it comes from her iPhone to my iPhone as an email instead of a text message. It lands in my outlook account as her phone number, followed by @vzwpix.com


How do we get this to stop happening? It only happens when she sends to me… Not when I send to her. We have gone through contacts, the message section in settings, etc. Please help!

If you both have iMessage enabled it will come as an iMessage. This may be happening because she does not have iMessage enabled and also does not have MMS enabled. She can enable iMessage in Settings/Messages.
