The accounts in Messages

When you open Messages, a list of your accounts appears.

The top item in the list, Create SMS, is a shortcut for directly creating a new text message (SMS or EMS).

An asterisk next to an account indicates that a message has arrived since you last opened the accounts inbox.

Handling text messages

A text message is sent via SMS (Short Message Service). It can contain up to 160 characters (70 characters if you use non latin characters). If you create a longer message it will be sent as two (or more) separate messages (concatenated), but received (if the receiving mobile phone supports this) as one message. If you add pictures, animations, melodies and sounds to your message it becomes an EMS (Enhanced Message Service) message.

Text messages can be sent to one or more person.

If you leave the message before sending it, it will automatically be stored in the Draft folder (unless you edit a message which already was located in Outbox).
