Write And Send Messages - Nokia 5800i XpressMusic User Manual

Write and send messages

Select Menu > 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 an e-
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.
Check the size limit of e-mail messages with your service
provider. If you attempt to send an e-mail message that
exceeds the size limit of the e-mail server, the message is left
in the Outbox folder, and the device attempts to resend it
periodically. Sending an e-mail requires a data connection,
and continuous attempts to resend the e-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.
