Messaging Types
SMS: Short Message Service allows you to send and receive short text messages to
mobile phones with short text message capability on the same network or any network
that has a roaming agreement. A small black and white picture message can be
inserted in the message.
MMS: Multimedia Messaging Service allows you to send messages containing
pictures, video clips, sound clips and text. Presentation templates are available to
place media objects into prearranged layouts. Multimedia messages can be sent to
another mobile phone with multimedia capability or to an email address.
Email: Create, send and receive email messages, which can have attachments.
Smart messages: Messages containing data such as electronic business cards,
ringing tones, Java
™
applications or configuration data such as WAP and multimedia
settings.
These services do not work by sending messages directly to the recipient; instead they
store and forward messages through specifically designated network servers.
Before Using Messaging Services
Before you can use multimedia or email messaging, your connection settings must be
configured.
Your multimedia configuration settings may already be set by Vodafone. If settings are
not available, contact Vodafone.
Your email configuration settings are provided by an Internet Service Provider (ISP)
that supports POP3/IMAP4/SMTP protocols.
Before you can send and receive email:
(1) you need a subscription for data services;
(2) contract must be set up with an ISP;
(3) you must configure an Internet Access Point (see Access Point Settings on
page 108).
