Messaging
48
Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond
the character limit for a single message. Longer messages
are 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. In the navigation bar, you can see the
message length indicator counting backwards. For
example, 10 (2) means that you can still add 10 characters
for the text to be sent as two messages.
E-mail messages are automatically placed in Outbox
before sending. If sending does not succeed, the e-mail is
left in the Outbox with the Failed status.
