Messaging
■Type and send messages
Your phone supports text messages beyond the limit for a single message. Longer messages
are sent as two or more messages. AT&T may charge accordingly. Characters with accents or
other marks, and characters from some language options, take up more space and limit the
number of characters that can be sent in a single message.
The wireless network may limit the size of MMS messages. If the inserted picture exceeds
this limit, the phone may make it s mall er so t hat i t can be sen t by M MS.
Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display multimedia messages.
The appearance of a message may vary depending on the receiving device.
1. Select > Messaging > Messages > New message and the message type. To create a
text message or multimedia message, select Message, or in the standby mode, press the
messaging key. The message type changes automatically based on the content.
Tip: To change the message font size, select Options > Font size and the
desired size.
2. In the To: field, enter the phone numbers or e-mail addresses of the recipients, or to select
recipients from Address Book, press the scroll key. Separate recipients with a semicolon (;).
3. Enter the subject for a multimedia, or e-mail message in the subject field. If the subject
field is not visible for a multimedia message, select Options > Message header fields,
mark Subject, and select OK.
4. Enter the content in the message field.
When you type a text message, the message length indicator shows how many characters
you can enter in the message. For example, 10 (2) means that you can still add 10 characters
for the text to be sent as a series of two text messages.
To insert an object, such as an image, video clip, note, or a business card, to a multimedia or
e-mail message, select Options > Insert content. Use the scroll key to switch between
the icons at the bottom of the message. Press the scroll key, or select Select to insert the
content.
To record a new sound clip for an audio message, select Insert audio clip > New. To use a
previously recorded sound clip, select Insert audio clip > From My Stuff.
5. To send the message, select Options > Send.
■Inbox
The Inbox folder contains received text and multimedia messages. To read received
messages, select > Messaging > Messages > Inbox and the message.
To view the list of media objects that are included in the multimedia message, open the
