I think that because the recipient was an email address and not a phone
number, it was gated to become an email message. Thunderbird itself isn't
an SMS client that I know of.

A phone number can be used as the recipient of an email message intended
to be received as SMS if one knows how the carrier translates its phone
numbers as email addresses, for there is no standard way to do that. But
that too is gated from email to SMS.
