There are a couple of things to check first (I'm sure you have, but just to be sure...) as these are insensitive to any tolerance.

Double check that this bit

PHP Code:

    //strip the footer from emails only
        if ($grouptype != 'news')
        {
        $message['text'] = stripfooter($message['text']);
        } 


has been entered in the right place in gateway.php.

Lastly, check that the new Varname you entered in the controlpanel is called exactly "emailfooter" (without quotes).

Try to keep what you put between the {} as short as possible, but enough that it won't occur naturally in a normal message. What is the phrase you are trying to match? Are there any unusual characters that may cause the script to hiccup?
