Messaging

.

Important: Exercise caution when opening messages.

Messages may contain malicious software or otherwise be

harmful to your device or PC.
Before you can create a multimedia message or write a mail,

you must have the correct connection settings defined.
The wireless network may limit the size of MMS messages. If

the inserted picture exceeds this limit, the device may make

it smaller so that it can be sent by MMS.
Only devices that have compatible features can receive and

display multimedia messages. The appearance of a message

may vary depending on the receiving device.
Check the size limit of mail messages with your service

provider. If you attempt to send a mail message that exceeds

the size limit of the mail server, the message is left in the

Outbox folder, and the device attempts to resend it

periodically. Sending a mail requires a data connection, and

continuous attempts to resend the mail may incur charges

from your service provider. In the Outbox folder, you can

delete such a message or move it to the Drafts folder.
Messaging requires network services.
