16 Communicate with text
messages
You can use your phone to send and receive
short text messages and e-mail if your service
provider offers the message feature and if you
subscribe to the service. Both services are
network dependant features, so you must
consult your service provider.
• ABOUT TEXT MESSAGES
Message recipients: The phone to which you send a text message must
support text messages. It may not be possible to send an SMS text
message to someone's phone who has an account with a different service
provider or a phone with a different protocol, but you can send and
receive e-mail messages.
Message length: The maximum length of a received text message is 160
characters. Your phone has space for approximately 80 text messages,
depending on the length of each message. The maximum length of a text
message depends on the capabilities of the network from which the
message originated
• USE FOLDERS FOR TEXT MESSAGES
Your phone has four folders for managing text messages.

edited and forwarded.
