•If the message is an emergency message (sent only by a network operator), in addition to the messages mentioned above, other messages in the Inbox, Outbox, and Saved folders could be automatically deleted if your phone’s memory is full.

Types of mobile messages

Depending on your service provider, when you create a mobile message, Text and Number only may appear in a list of menu items, requiring that you select the type of message to send. If this list does not appear, your phone will automatically create the type of message supported by your service provider:

•Text - A text mobile message can include text in addition to a callback number.

•Number only - A number only mobile message is like a numeric page: a callback number (the sender’s phone number) appears on the recipient’s pager or phone display.

Parts of a mobile text message

A message consists of a header and a body. The header may contain the sender’s phone number or email address and the date and time that the message was sent. If an entry in your Phone book matches the sender’s phone number, the sender’s name also appears. The body contains the main part of the message. If you receive a message that was sent via email, the subject (title) of the message may appear at the beginning of the message body.

Urgent mobile messages

An urgent priority level can be assigned to a mobile message. When you receive an urgent mobile message, Urgent appears in the message header. When you send an urgent mobile message, a similar notification message (or an icon) appears on the recipient’s phone or other device (if the recipient’s phone or other device supports it). See ‘Sending a message’ on page 58.
