Receiving/Reading Super Maildrop Messages
This feature, along with the use of topics, enables your pager to receive and
store more powerful and sophisticated types of information services. The super
maildrop feature allows the pager to store up to 3000 topics. Each of these
topics can contain multiple messages.
Below is an example of super maildrops with alert-enabled (
b
) and alert-
disabled (
I
) as displayed on the Status screen.
Note: Please check with your service provider to determine if your pager’s
super maildrop feature is enabled.
If no super maildrops have received messages, no super maildrop icons are
displayed.
You can enable alerts and set the type of alert at the super maildrop level
(page 20). At the topic level, you can enable alerts (page 26).
