If you have subscribed to a message
network service, you can send and
receive messages to compatible
phones that are also subscribed to a
message service. You can also send and
receive multimedia and e-mail
messages if supported by your network
operator. You can make distribution
lists that contain phone numbers and
names from your contacts list.
See “Create distribution lists”, p. 14.
Your device supports the sending of
text messages beyond the character
limit of 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.
When composing text or multimedia
messages, check the number of
characters allowed in the top right
corner of the message. Using Unicode
characters takes up more space.
With Unicode characters in your
message, the indicator may not show
the message length correctly.
Before sending the message, the phone
tells you if the message exceeds the
maximum length allowed for one
message.
Important: Exercise caution
opening messages. Messages
may contain malicious
software or otherwise be
harmful to your device or PC.
Note: When you send a
message, your device may
display Message sent,
indicating your device has sent
the message to the message
center number programmed
into your device. This is not an
indication that the message
has been received at the
intended destination. For more
details about messaging
services, check with your
network operator.
