The advantages of media messages include the following:
Media messages essentially “play” the picture or sound you attach to the message, so the
recipient does not have to download the file(s) first.
Media messages can be sent or received any time your phone is turned on and not in a
voice or data call.
Instant Messaging
You can use MSN® Messenger on the Smartphone to send and receive instant messages.
MSN Messenger on the Smartphone provides the same chat environment as MSN Messenger
on your desktop computer. For example, you can chat with a single MSN Messenger contact,
or with several contacts at once. You can switch between active chats, block contacts, and
configure display settings, such as your name and current status (Away, Online, and so on).
Messaging Accounts
Different types of messages are created and stored in different messaging accounts. Your
Smartphone already includes three accounts:
Media Messages , Text Messages , and Outlook
E-Mail .
You can use up to eight different messaging accounts with the Smartphone. For example, you
may want to set up an account to send and receive e-mail messages by using Internet e-mail.
(See “Setting up E-Mail Accounts” in section 5.2.)
Opening an Account
To view the list of accounts:
On the Home screen, press the Start soft key and select
Messaging .
The list of accounts displays with the number of unread messages
in the Inbox of each account shown in parentheses.
You can open an account by selecting it in the list.
