• LEARN ABOUT E-MAIL TEXT MESSAGES

You can also use the Messages menu to write and send text messages to a person’s Internet or corporate e-mail account or to phones in other networks.

Important: The message can contain up to 160 characters. However, the length of your message is affected by the length of the e-mail address to which you are sending the message. A lengthy e-mail address will lessen the amount of available characters you can place in the message.

Create and send an e-mail message

Use the same procedure for creating and sending e-mail messages as found in the section, “Write a text message” on page 62. However, select Add e-mail, then enter the e-mail address (or press Search and recall an e-mail address stored in your phone book).

Messages to phones in other networks

Most service providers now have the ability to route e-mail messages to your phone (appearing as text messages). The following are just a few examples of how your phone e-mail address may appear:

2135551234@myserviceprovider.com

username@serviceprovider.com

2135551234@mobile.myserviceprovider.com

It can be difficult to send messages to phones outside your service provider’s network using traditional text messaging. However, it is possible to send a text message as an e-mail to phones outside your service provider’s network (provided the recipient’s phone is capable of receiving e-mail text messages).

Follow the instructions, “Write a text message” on page 62 but select Add e-mail. Enter the e-mail address associated with the recipient’s phone number (or press Search and recall the e-mail address stored in your phone book).
