Using links in messages
When you receive a text message that contains a telephone number, email address,
or URL, you can dial the number, send an email message, or go to the web page
immediately. Your Treo smartphone automatically opens the appropriate application
from the link.
1. Select a message from the list.
2. Select the phone number, email address, or URL (appears as underlined blue text).
Managing your messages
The status icons that appear next to each message in the Inbox and Outbox folders
indicate the following:
• A text message. Urgent messages appear with a red exclamation point (!).
• A chat session.
In list view you can rearrange the messages in any folder using the Sort command.
1. From list view, open the menus .
2. Select View, and then select Sort by Name or Sort by Date.
In list view you can delete several messages at once from any folder using the
Purge command.
1. From list view, open the menus .
2. Select Purge on the Message menu.
3. Select the Purge pick list and select an option.
4. Select OK.
If you have multiple alerts,
the Alert screen displays all
your pending alerts. Select
an item’s description to
jump to that item, or check
the box to clear that item.
To view all your pending
alerts from any screen on
your phone, press and
hold Center.
You can send and receive
messages even while you
are on a phone call. This is
the easiest to do when
using a hands-free headset
or the speakerphone. You
can expand and collapse
header information by
selecting one of the header
icons in the title bar of a
message.
