Messages

With the Nokia D211 you can send and receive text and picture messages. See

“Nokia Short Messaging” on page 46 for more information.
Any changes that you make to message settings affect the way in which your

messages are sent and received. The availability of some of the settings depends

on the service provider or network operator.

SMS application in use
Select the Short Message Service (SMS) application you want to use for sending

and receiving messages. The Nokia D211 includes the Nokia Short Messaging

application.

Message centre number
You need the message centre number to send messages. You receive the number

from your service provider or network operator.

Messages sent as
Text and picture messages are normally sent in text format, but it is possible to

convert them into an alternative format (e-mail, fax, paging). To be able to receive

a converted message, the recipient must have an appropriate device available, and

the network must support this feature.

Message validity
If the recipient of a message cannot be reached within the set message validity

period, the message is removed from the message centre. If you select

Maximum,

the validity period is set to the maximum time allowed by the network.

Reply via same message centre
Select this check box if you want to request the network to route the reply to your

message via your own message centre.

Delivery reports
Select this check box if you want to receive delivery reports on the messages you

have sent.

Send long messages
If the

Send long messages check box is selected, messages longer than 160

characters are sent as concatenated messages. A concatenated message is

received as one long message if the recipient’s device supports this function. If this

option is not selected, messages longer than 160 characters are sent as several

normal text messages.

Start SMS application when message is received
Select this check box if you want your SMS application, such as Nokia Short

Messaging, to open automatically when you have received a message.
