Messages
• The last setting you accessed is automatically activated
for sending subsequent messages.
The following options are available:
Reply path: allows the recipient of your message to
send you a reply through your message centre, if your
network supports this service.
Delivery report: allows you to activate or deactivate
the report function. When this function is activated, the
network informs you whether or not your message has
been delivered.
Character support: allows you to select a character
encoding type, either GSM-alphabet, Unicode, or
Auto. If you select Auto, the phone automatically
changes the encoding type from GSM-alphabet to
Unicode when you enter a Unicode character.
When you select Unicode, the maximum number of
characters in a message is reduced by approximately
half. If your recipient's phone does not support Unicode
characters, he/she may not be able to read your
message correctly. For details about Unicode
characters, see page 209.
Validity period: allows you to set the length of time
your text messages are stored in the message centre
while attempts are made to deliver them.
Message type: allows you to set the default message
type to Text, Fax, Voice, ERMES, X400, or Email.
The network can convert the messages into the selected
format.
Service centre: allows you to store or change the
number of your message centre, which is required when
sending messages. You must obtain this number from
your service provider.
