Help Text message not sent notification

Hello Everyone.

This is my first Smartphone and so far so good.... I've had it since Christmas day. It is a Droid 2 Global, all the USA droid 2's were sold out... But anyway that is not my problem.
My Problem is that I keep getting a notification that says "Text message not sent" Tap to view message. For an icon it has a text envelope with a red X in the corner. Yesterday a friend and I were texting back and forth... she sent me a picture from her Sprint Android to me. There was a pop-up message that said did you want to send a delivery conformation. I pushed the yes button, then another error msg said something like nationwide coverage not available. I currently have full 3G service. So for the last few hours I keep seeing this notification, text message not sent. If I tap on the notification, it takes me to my text message inbox and then says Message not available. I can keep pushing the clear button all I want but it keeps coming back. I have restarted the phone, erased all my messages in my inbox but it keeps showing up. Emails and text messages send just fine, everyone seems to be replying. Can you please help?

Thanks,
Darrin
