Nokia 6010 question

| Jack Crane 2005-05-26, 9:55 am |
| Just got a Nokia 6010, and am trying to figure out how to send a text
message to an email address I have added for someone in my contacts. I'd
like to not have to type out the address each time.
Thanks,
Jack

Do you have the email as part of your contacts for that person? If
you do on your phone when you find that person's email address there
should be an option to send email. Of course if you don't have that
person's email address in the details for that person the only way to
send email is to manually key in the email address.

Since posting earlier today, I've spent a long time on the phone with
T-M Customer Support. I finally got someone who could tell me how to
send an email with my 6010 using an email address in my Contacts,
without having to type in the address. Here's what to do:
Menu->Messages->Multimedia messages->Create message. Then Select brings
up a screen in which to write the body of the email (don't know if a
subject is possible or not). When finished typing, press Options and
select "Send to email". The next screen calls for entering the email
address. Type it in, or get it from one of your contacts by pressing
Find. This bring up your contacts. Scroll to the one you want to send
to, and for whom you've entered an email address. Press OK. The next
screen will show his address has been inserted in that textbox (see
above) into you could also have typed his email address. Press OK. That
sends the email.
I have the cheapo T-M account, $19.99(?)/month, so sending text messages
and emails cost me 5 cents each. If I include a picture attachment in an
email, I'm charged a quarter. At least this is what that terrific
Customer Support person told me. BTW she was Andrea0341552.
I hope this is clear enough.

You're making things much more difficult than they need to be. Go to
contacts and if you have for a contact an email address you just bring
up that person's email address in the details and you will now have an
option to send e-mail. Fill out the subject. Compose the email and
send to 500. You don't need to send MMS.

Yes, you're right. Thanks!
One small problem is that if I enter a subject when a subject is asked
for, it arrives as the first words of the body, but in parentheses.
For example:
================
Subject: Hey
How about Friday?
=================
This arrives as "(Hey) How about Friday" (no subject header)
