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 63. This is not an indication

that the message has been received at the intended destination.
