the message is received.

Message Notifications
When you receive a message, your phone notifies you with
text on the display and a notification tone or vibration. You
can access the message or dismiss the notification.
If you dismiss the notification, the message is not deleted. It
can be accessed through the message center.
If you are not on a phone call when you receive a message,
your phone sounds a notification tone every 30 seconds until
you access the message, you dismiss the notification, or the
alert time-out expires.
When you are on a phone call, you can receive message
notifications for all types of messages except MMS messages.
For other types of messages, your phone may sound a
notification tone during the call or after you end the call,
depending on how you set your notification options.
