SENDING SHORT
E-MAIL MESSAGES
34
If you want to contact someone without having a phone
conversation, you can create and send text messages from your
handset.
You can contact another Omnipoint user, or anyone with an Internet
e-mail address. Here’s how to write a message.
> Use the
ARROW
keys to scroll to the “MAIL” menu. Press
.
> Use the
ARROW
keys to go to “Send Messages.”
> Press
.
> When “New” appears on your display, press
. You’ll see
an empty display.
> Use the keypad to enter a message up to 160 characters long.
(Note: if you’re sending the message to an Internet e-mail
address, see below.)
> Because keys contain more than one letter, press several times
until the letter you want is displayed. For example: to type “A,”
press the
key once; to type “B,” press the
key twice.
For lower case letters, use the
key. (For more
information, see your Ericsson User’s Manual.)
> If two successive letters in the name you’re entering appear on
the same key, wait until an underline appears to the right of
your last letter, then enter the next letter.
> To enter a space, press the
key four times.

For example:
Messages you receive from the Internet begin with the sender’s e-mail
address, followed by a “#” sign.
(Note: on your handset display, the standard Internet address “@”
sign will be replaced by the “:” symbol.)
