■ Write and send messages
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.
Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for
a single message. Longer messages are sent as a series of two or more messages.
Your service provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or
M e s s a g i n g

other marks, and characters from some language options, take up more space,
limiting the number of characters that can be sent in a single message.
Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display multimedia
messages. The appearance of a message may vary depending on the receiving
device.
Before you can send and receive an SMS message, a multimedia
message, or an e-mail, or connect to your remote mailbox, you must
have the correct connection settings in place. See “Messaging settings,”
p. 41.

When writing text messages, the message length indicator shows

10 (2) means that you can still add 10 characters for the text to be
sent as two separate text messages.
