About messaging
With Messaging (network service), you
can send and receive text, multimedia,
audio, and e-mail messages. You can also
receive web service messages, cell
broadcast messages, and special
messages containing data, and send
service commands.
Select
> Messaging.
The available messaging types may vary.
For more information, contact your
service provider.
Before sending or receiving messages,
you may need to do the following:
• Insert a valid SIM card in the device
and be located in the service area of a
cellular network.
• Verify that the network supports the
messaging features you want to use
and that they are activated on your
SIM card.
• Define the internet access point
settings on the device.
• Define the e-mail account settings on
the device.
• Define the text message settings on
the device.
• Define the multimedia message
settings on the device.
The device may recognise the SIM card
provider and automatically configure
some of the message settings. If not, you
may need to define the settings manually;
or contact your service provider to
configure the settings.
The appearance of a picture message may
vary depending on the receiving device.
Only devices that have compatible
features can receive and display
multimedia messages. The appearance of
a message may vary depending on the
receiving device.
Write and send messages

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 in
place.
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
increase your data transfer costs. In the
Outbox folder, you can delete such a
message, or move it to the Drafts folder.
