GETTING SHORT
E-MAIL MESSAGES
32
Text messages are another way your business associates, family
and friends can keep in touch with you when you’re out of the
office or away from home.
Even when you’re on the phone, a short e-mail message can be
delivered to you. Applicable usage charges apply.
Here’s what happens when you receive a short e-mail message.
> A tone will automatically sound to alert you that a message has
come in and you’ll see the word “Message” and the prompt
“Read?” on your display.
> Press , and your message will be displayed.
> Or press , and your message will be stored for you. The
ENVELOPE symbol will remain on your display to remind you
that you have an unread message.
(For instructions on reading, saving, and erasing short e-mail
messages, see “A Word About Messages” on p. 19.)
Short E-Mail From The Internet.
Anyone with access to Internet e-mail can send e-mail messages to
your Omnipoint handset. Messages can be up to 160 characters long,
including Sender’s address, subject and message textup.
Your Omnipoint Internet e-mail address is your Omnipoint phone
number, including 1 and area code, followed by the “@” sign and
the Omnipoint domain name “omnipoint.net”.

PAGING MESSAGES
31
Your Omnipoint handset can also serve as your personal pager –
to keep you in touch, even if you can’t answer a call.
Your caller will be able to send a numeric page directly to your
handset, even if your handset is turned off or you’re out of the
Omnipoint coverage area. Paging messages can contain call-back
numbers or other numeric codes. Applicable usage charges apply.
To give your callers the option of sending you a page rather than
leaving a voice message on your Answering Machine, add an
instruction in your personal Answering Machine greeting – such as:
“To page me, press 1 now and enter the number where I
can reach you.”
How will you know when you have a page?
> A tone will automatically sound to alert you that a message has
come in and you’ll see the word “Message” and the prompt
“Read?” on your display.
> Press , and your message will be displayed.
> Or press , and your message will be stored for you. The
ENVELOPE symbol will remain on your display to remind you
that you have an unread message.
If your numeric paging message contains a call-back number, you
can dial that number immediately:
> Press the key.

Word About Messages” on p. 19.)
