Write and send messages
Select Menu > Messaging.
Important: Exercise caution when opening messages. Messages may contain
malicious software or otherwise be harmful to your device or PC.
Before you can create a multimedia message or write an e-mail, you must have the
correct connection settings defined.
The wireless network may limit the size of MMS messages. If the inserted picture exceeds
this limit the device may make it smaller so that it can be sent by MMS.
Check the size limit of e-mail messages with your service provider. If you attempt to
send an e-mail message that exceeds the size limit of the e-mail server, the message is
left in the Outbox folder, and the device attempts to resend it periodically. Sending an
e-mail requires a data connection, and continuous attempts to resend the e-mail may
incur charges from your service provider. In the Outbox folder, you can delete such a
message or move it to the Drafts folder.

messages are sent as two or more messages. Your service provider may charge
accordingly. Characters with accents or other marks, and characters from some
language options, take up more space, and limit the number of characters that can be
sent in a single message.
