The maximum length of a sent or received message is 160 characters. Your phone
has space for several messages, depending on the length of each message. The
maximum length of a message also may depend on the capabilities of the network
from which the message originated.

Folders

Your phone has folders for managing text messages. Text message folders are
located under the Messages menu.

Inbox—The inbox stores received messages. Messages remain in the inbox until

you delete them or save them in the archive folder. You can forward or reply to
messages in the inbox.

Outbox—The outbox stores messages you have written, sent, edited, and forwarded.
Messages in the outbox are not saved messages. As you send new messages, old
messages are automatically removed from the outbox. If you want to save a
message you have sent, read the message while it is in the outbox and use the
Options menu to save it to the archive folder.

Archive—The archive folder stores messages you have saved. You can save messages
to the archive folder from the inbox and the outbox. You can reply to or forward
saved messages.
