You can send and receive i-mode mail where the message
body contains up to 5,000 full-pitch characters (10,000 bytes),
but the number of characters that can be sent and received is
reduced depending on the amount of data in any attached
files. You cannot send or receive files that are incompatible
with i-mode mail. Such attached files are automatically
deleted at the i-mode Center and you receive only the
message. When an attachment has been deleted in this way,
the " 添 付 フ ァ イ ル 削 除" (Attached file deleted) message is
added to the corresponding i-mode mail message. (The " 添付
ファイル削除" (Attached file deleted) message is included in
the number of characters that can be received.)
If the number of characters in the i-mode mail message body
exceeds the maximum number of characters permitted, either
"/" or "//" is inserted at the end of the message and the
remaining portion is automatically deleted.
When you send i-mode mail to a mova terminal, the message
body can contain up to a maximum of 2,000 full-pitch
characters. An i-shot or i-motion mail is sent with the URL of
the i-shot or i-motion specified in the mail message. Attached
files other than i-shot and i-motion are deleted.
If the number of characters in the subject exceeds the
maximum number of characters permitted, all characters that
exceed the limit are automatically deleted.

When you send a mail that contains pictographs to the
devices of other mobile phone companies (au/Vodafone/TU-
KA), the pictographs are automatically converted to similar
ones on the other party's device.
* Pictographs may not be displayed properly depending on
the model or functions of the other party's device.
* If the other party's device does not have a proper pictograph,
the pictograph is converted to characters or "＝".
● If you cannot receive mail
When mail is delivered to the i-mode Center, it is
immediately sent to your i-mode terminal. However,
if your i-mode terminal is turned off or you are
outside the i-mode service area and cannot receive
mail, the mail is stored at the i-mode Center.
While mail is kept at the i-mode Center, it is resent a
maximum of 3 times over a set period of time. You
can also select and receive your mail at the i-mode
Center by setting "Receive option setting".

<i-mode mail>
The table below shows the maximum number of messages
that can be kept at the i-mode Center and the maximum
storage period.
Maximum number of messages
207 to 1,000
(up to approx. 2 M bytes)
Mail that is left at the i-mode Center for longer than the
maximum storage period is automatically deleted.
The limit on the number of messages that can be kept differs
depending on the mail file sizes. When the amount of kept
mail exceeds the limit, the i-mode Center no longer accepts
incoming mail and any new mail is returned to the sender
together with an error message. When this happens, the
" (red)" icon appears on your i-mode terminal's screen. If
you have selected "ON" in "Receive option setting" (P.238),
" (red)" does not appear on your i-mode terminal even
when the limit is exceeded.
You can receive mail kept at the i-mode Center to your FOMA
terminal using "Check new message" (P.225) or "Receive
option" (P.224). When the new mail arrives on your FOMA
terminal, other kept mail and messages are also received at
the same time.
All the mail kept at the i-mode Center is deleted once it has
been received on your i-mode terminal. The received mail is
stored on your i-mode terminal. →P.222
Very large e-mail messages may not be accepted at the
i-mode Center.
If you use "Suspend Mail" function, new mail is not kept at the
i-mode Center.
<SMS>
SMS are kept at the SMS Center for a maximum of 72 hours.
You can set the keeping period for sent SMS using "SMS
validity period" (P.238, 247).
SMS left at the SMS Center for longer than the maximum
storage period is automatically deleted.
You can receive SMS kept at the SMS Center to your FOMA
terminal using "Check new SMS" (P.249).
SMS kept at the SMS Center is deleted once it has been
received on your FOMA terminal. The received SMS is stored
on your FOMA terminal.
