Receiving/Reading Maildrop Messages

Your pager is capable of receiving Maildrop messages (Information Services).
Maildrop messages are received the same way as personal messages. One
maildrop (indicated by

O

for audible alert or

K

for silent alert) can store up to

eight different messages designated for that maildrop. Maildrop messages are
located on the second row of the display. If no maildrop messages have been
received, no maildrop icons are displayed.

You can set an alert for each maildrop (indicated on the Status screen by

O

).

However, the default is no alert (

K

). See “Setting the Alert for a Specific

Maildrop” on page 20 for more information about how to set a maildrop alert.
