The iMessenger application uses the header type you select for all
incoming messages.
Distribution lists of incoming messages
Distribution lists are the addresses in the To:, CC:, and BCC: fields of
an incoming message. A maximum of 300 of the first 500 characters of
a message is used to download the distribution lists. (A maximum of
100 characters is used to download the text in the Subj: field.)
If a distribution list must be truncated, an ellipsis (. . .) appears after
the last name. There is no way to retrieve the truncated part of the list.
Your address ( username@palm.net ) always appears as the first address in
the distribution list you are part of. After your address is downloaded,
as much of the remaining information in the distribution lists is
downloaded, up to the maximum 300 characters, in the following
order: the To:, CC:, and BCC: fields.
Attachments
The iMessenger application does not support attachments, with one
exception: If an attachment is a simple ASCII text file, the iMessenger
application appends the text of the file to the end of the message, so
you can read it as part of the body of the message.
Otherwise, when you open a message that was sent to you with any
other kind of attachment, a message notifies you that the attachment
cannot be downloaded. To prevent attachments from taking up space
in your Palm.Net mailbox, delete the message as soon as you can.
