Learn about message memory

Messages are stored in the following locations:

•Inbox—stores new messages and read messages

•Outbox—saves copies of all sent messages or messages waiting to be sent (in the event the network is temporarily unavailable)

•Archive—used to file read messages and sent messages for long-term storage

A blinking icon indicates the text message memory is full. You cannot receive, save, or send messages, until you delete older messages from your Inbox, Outbox, or Archive.

• MESSAGE SETTINGS

Specify several settings that affect the overall way your phone handles text messaging. Use Menu > Messages > Text messages > Message settings to configure the following:

•Sending options—used to specify normal or urgent priority, request delivery note, or specify that a callback number be sent automatically.

•Other settings—used to specify the font size in which messages will be displayed. Also used to configure how your phone automatically handles incoming messages when your Inbox or Outbox are full, and saving copies of sent messages automatically. If the phone has Enhanced Messaging Services, and you can control the playback of sounds sent to your phone in messages.

•ORGANIZE TEXT MESSAGES USING FOLDERS

You have several options for storing and organizing your text messages. The following pages explain further about the various folder options.

•Inbox—Text messages you receive remain stored in your Inbox until you delete them or move them to the Archive folder.

•Outbox—Messages that can’t be sent immediately can be saved so you can come back to it later. Your phone stores the message in the Outbox.

If you try to send a text message and the network is unavailable, the message is saved in the Outbox.
