The wireless network may limit
the size of MMS messages. If the
inserted picture exceeds this
limit the device may make it
smaller so that it can be sent by
MMS.
Check the size limit of e-mail
messages with your service
provider. If you attempt to send
an e-mail message that exceeds
the size limit of the e-mail
server, the message is left in the
Outbox
folder, and the device attempts to resend it
periodically. Sending an e-mail requires a data
connection, and continuous attempts to resend the e-
mail may increase your phone bill. In the
Outbox
folder,
you can delete such a message or move it to the
Drafts
folder.
