Messages 7 Messages If you have subscribed to a message network service, you can send and receive messages to compatible phones that are also subscribed to a message service. You can also send and receive picture messages, multimedia messages, and e-mail if supported by your service provider. Also, you can make distribution lists that contain phone numbers and names from your contact list. Standard text messages can be up to 160 characters in length. See "Text entry" on page 26 for more information. Using special (Unicode) characters such as take up more space. If there are special characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message length correctly. Before the message is sent, the device tells you if the message exceeds the maximum length allowed for one message. You can cancel sending by selecting Cancel or you can save the message in the inbox. • LINKED MESSAGES Your phone can send and receive long text messages (up to 450 characters). Text messages that exceed 160 characters are automatically split into multiple messages and sent as a series. The series of messages is linked by the compatible phone when received and displayed as a single SMS message. For this feature to work properly, the receiving phone must also support linked messages. While you write a message, the number of available characters and the current part number of linked message (for example, 120/2) are shown in the top right corner of the display. While receiving linked messages, you can start reading the first part before the phone has received the entire message. While viewing the message, you may see *some text missing* on the display. This is normal, and the message content will be updated as soon as the missing sequence arrives. If the memory is full, you may have to delete a message from your inbox or outbox before your phone can update the missing text. See "Delete text and picture messages" on page 45 for more information. Nokia 6230 User Guide 35 Copyright © 2004 Nokia
