Staying in Touch
Sending and receiving messages
and email
You can use the Messaging application to exchange email, brief text
messages (SMS), and multimedia messages (MMS) with other mobile
devices and email addresses that support these forms of messaging.
You can also exchange instant messages (IM) with Pocket MSN. Before
you use your smartphone to send or receive messages, consult Verizon
Wireless for pricing and availability of email, text, multimedia, and IM
messaging services.

select from predefined My Text phrases, such as "Call me" or "On my
way. " You can add your own My Text phrases, and if you prefer, you can
enter the full message text too.

Before You Begin
Make sure your phone
is on (see "Turning
your phone on and
off" on page 11)
before you send or
receive messages.
Did You Know
When addressing a
message, you can
enter the first few
numbers of a
contact's mobile
phone number or the
contact's first and last
initials separated by a
space.
Tip
To address a message
to multiple recipients,
separate the address-
es with a semicolon
(;). If you address a
single text or multi-
media message to
three people, you are
billed for three mes-
sages.
