You will not be able to receive text
messages until you have first sent a
message. The first message sent
registers you with the text service.
If you have sub-addresses set up
If a text message has been sent to a
particular sub-address, the
symbol will only appear on the
handset associated with that sub-
address and will be shown as part of
the ‘personal SMS’ for that handset.
Otherwise, it will be displayed on all
handsets and stored in the Inbox.
The number of new messages shown
in the display includes messages in
your personal SMS box and in the
general Inbox.
