It takes more time to send a multimedia message than to send a text message.
While the multimedia message is being sent, the animated indicator
is
displayed and you can use other functions on the phone. If there is an
interruption while the message is being sent, the phone tries to resend it a few
times. If this fails, the message will remain in the
Outbox
folder and you can try
to resend it later.
The messages that you have sent will be saved in the
Sent items
folder if the
setting
Save sent messages
is set to
Yes
. See
Settings for multimedia messages
on page
84
. This is not an indication that the message has been received at the
intended destination.
