Sending a Message
Nextel Text and Numeric Messaging includes four options for sending
messages: Web Messaging on nextel.com, Email Messaging, Numeric
Messaging, and Operator Assisted Messaging.
Web Messaging on nextel.com
Nextel’s Web Messaging enables you to send a message to yourself, a single
Nextel customer, or a group of Nextel customers. It also includes a “Schedule
For Later” option, which allows you to schedule messages to be sent at a
specific time and date. You can also check on the delivery status of your
messages.
