The
Delivery reports
page contains information on the status of the messages
you have sent. This is a network service to which you must subscribe before
being able to use it.
Possible statuses for sent messages are:
Delivered – The message has been delivered to the recipient.
Pending – The message has not been delivered to the recipient yet. If the
recipient of a message cannot be reached within the set message validity
period, the message is removed from the message centre.
Failed – The message could not be delivered to the recipient (for example, the
message center number was incorrect). The recipient was not reached within
the set message validity period and the message was removed from the
message center.
•
The
Sent messages
page contains a copy of each sent message.
•
The
Contacts
page enables you to manage contact information and business
cards stored on the SIM card. You can create, edit, and delete contacts, and
send business cards as text messages.
Text messages
Before you can send any text messages, you need to save your message center
number. See “Configure message settings” on page 44 for more information.
Make sure you have either a GSM or GPRS connection type selected. You cannot
send or receive messages when connected to WLAN.

In the

shows how many characters you have left and in how many messages the text
will be sent.

The standard length of a text message is 160 characters.
Messages longer than this can be sent as several normal text messages
or as one concatenated text message which is received as one long
message if the recipient's device supports this function. You can select
the
Send long messages
option on the
Settings
page of the Nokia D311
PC card. See “Configure message settings” on page 44 for more
