Latest exchage with HTC:
Guess I'll try Handcent or something to see if it helps. Or just live with it. My phone was fine for a while, but now the issue is cropping up. Maybe I'll first try deleting all of the text threads since it was fine for a few weeks after I got it.
I spoke with an Escalations Team member and he said we have had this issue happen on every ROM version. Whether that version is official or unofficial it still happened. So this turns out to be a quirk with Android in general and he said there is nothing wrong with your device.
He also suggested you might want to try a third party messaging application from the Market to see if this works better for you.
