If you have subscribed to a message network service, you can send and receive
messages to compatible phones also subscribed to a message service. You can make
distribution lists that contain phone numbers and names from your contacts list.
When composing text messages, check the number of characters allowed in the
top right corner of the message. Using Unicode characters takes up more space.
With Unicode characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message
length correctly. Before sending the message, the phone tells you if the message
exceeds the maximum length allowed for one message.
Important: Exercise caution when opening messages. Messages may
contain malicious software or be otherwise harmful to your device or PC.
Note: When you send a message, your device may display Message sent.
This is an indication that the message has been sent by your device to the
message center number programmed into your device. This is not an
indication that the message has been received at the intended destination.
For more details about messaging services, check with your service provider.
