6. Messaging
You can read, write, send, and save
text, multimedia, e-mail, audio, and
flash messages. All messages are
organized into folders.
■ Text messages (SMS)
With the short message service
(SMS) you can send and receive text
messages, and receive messages that
can contain pictures (network
service).
Before you can send any text or SMS
e-mail message, you must save your
message center number. See
"Message settings", on page 30.
To check SMS e-mail service
availability and to subscribe to the
service, contact your service
provider. To save an e-mail address
in Contacts, see "Save multiple
numbers, text items, or an image",
on page 34.
Your device supports the sending of
text messages beyond the character
limit for a single message. Longer
messages will be sent as a series of
two or more messages. Your service
provider may charge accordingly.
Characters that use accents or other
marks, and characters from some
language options like Chinese, take
up more space limiting the number
of characters that can be sent in a
single message.
The message length indicator at the
top of the display shows the total
number of characters left and the
number of messages needed for
sending. For example, 673/2 means
that there are 673 characters left
and that the message will be sent as
a series of two messages.
