Reading and sending messages
The Messaging application shows your messages as conversations, which means that all
messages to and from a particular person are grouped together. To send multimedia
messages, you need the correct MMS settings on your device. See
Internet and MMS
settings
on page 30 .
The number of characters that you can send in a single message varies depending on the
operator and the language you use. The maximum size of a multimedia message, which
includes the size of added media files, is also operator dependent. Contact your network
operator for more information.
