See “Reading your messages” on page 141.
2 Press Menu and touch and touch More > Select text.
3 Use your finger to drag across the text you want to copy.
The text you selected is copied to the clipboard.
You can now use the techniques described in “Editing text” on page 38 to paste
the copied text into a message you compose or into a text field in another
application.

When you open a conversation, messages that you’ve already read are hidden, in a tab
that indicates the number of hidden messages.
1 Touch the tab that indicates the number of previously read messages.
The tab expands into tabs that list the sender and the first line of each read
message.
2 Touch an expanded tab to reread the message.
