Click the Send button to send the message. Character Count As you type a message, you will see a count in the status bar similar to the one shown above, showing the number of characters in the message so far; the number of messages that will be sent is displayed in the parentheses. Each message can be up to 160 characters. The status bar display is in the format c(m), where c is the number of characters and m is the number of messages. For Example: the status bar displays 180(2) when the message is 180 characters long. This message will be broken up into 2 SMS messages, one 160 characters long and one 20 characters long. The (2) indicates the total number of messages that will be sent. A single SMS can only be 160 characters long. However, if your account settings permit, you can send longer messages.

To do so, while sending a SMS (you have a New SMS window open in IBM Lotus Notes ), click on the Message Options button in the action bar. 35 IBM Lotus Notes

36 Two choices are available: Send immediately, which is the default and causes the message to be submitted to the server as soon as you click on the Send button, and Send at, which lets you specify a date and time at which IBM Lotus Notes should send the message. The screenshot below shows how the Message Options window looks with Send at selected. Note: In order for messages to be sent at a certain time in the future, IBM Lotus Notes must be running when they should be sent.

To do so, click on the SMS Tools button in the action bar while you are composing a new SMS, and then select Insert Signature from the displayed menu, as shown below.

SMS Reminders KPN SMS mail can send reminders to your mobile phone, as SMS messages, for appointments you have created in your IBM Lotus Notes calendar. Note: SMS Reminders requires IBM Lotus Notes running at the time the event occurs. When you create an appointment in IBM Lotus Notes, you can set a SMS Reminder in two ways: 1. If the Send SMS Reminders checkbox is selected on the General tab in the SMS Options window, a SMS Reminder will be sent automatically for any calendar appointment when you select the Notify Me checkbox for that appointment in IBM Lotus Notes. 2. After creating the appointment, you can locate it in the SMS Reminders folder and use the Set Reminders button to set a SMS Reminder for that calendar appointment as described below. 37 IBM Lotus Notes

Navigate to the date that has the appointment whose SMS Reminder you wish to add or change. 3.

To have specific incoming messages to your IBM Lotus Notes Mail Inbox sent as SMS messages to your mobile phone, you use SMS Rules. Note: In order for messages to be forwarded to your phone, IBM Lotus Notes must be running when they arrive. Creating a SMS Rule You can create a new rule by selecting the SMS Rule folder in the folder list. In the right pane, you can see the list of existing rules. To create a rule, click the New Rule button in the action bar to display the New SMS Rule window. Initially the rule is marked as On as shown in the above screenshot. You can turn the rule off by clicking on the Off selection. This will mark the rule inactive, but you can still save it. This may be useful if you wish to create and save a rule that will be needed later. Under Specify Conditions, select a message part to check, such as Sender or Subject. Select an operator such as contains or is not, and enter the text to check for, such as the name of a certain person or a certain word, in the last field. Then click Add to create the condition. Repeat this process for each condition you wish to include in the rule. If, after creating a condition, you decide not to include it in the rule, simply click on the condition in the When mail messages arrive box, and then click on the Remove button. To clear all the conditions, click on the Remove All button. Under Specify Actions, select Send as SMS, then click on Add Action. 38 IBM Lotus Notes

39 Finally, click on OK to create the rule. The New SMS Rule window closes, and IBM Lotus Notes returns you to the SMS Rule folder. Viewing SMS Rules You can view rules by opening the SMS Rule folder. The right part shows the list of rules that will be applied to each incoming message. Editing a SMS Rule You can change an existing rule by double- clicking on the rule in the SMS Rule folder. The Edit SMS Rule dialog box opens, displaying the current conditions and actions for the rule. To edit the condition, proceed as described under Creating a SMS Rule above. When you are finished making changes, click on the OK button to change the rule. SMS Options The SMS Options window lets you specify various settings, such as your home country, default originator, and alerts. You can open this window from any of the SMS folders, such as the SMS Inbox or SMS Reminders folders, by clicking on the SMS Options button in the action bar. General tab Here you can change your account settings. Country The country is where the mobile phone number account is created. After selecting the country, when you send a message KPN SMS mail will convert all numbers to international format. For example, for The Netherlands, the code is 0031, which is converted to +31 and followed by the mobile phone number. This means that KPN SMS mail will be able to distinguish 10-digit number to be Dutch numbers and 13-digit number to be international or Dutch (if 0031). Under Regional settings, use the drop-down list to select the country you wish to use. 39 IBM Lotus Notes

40 Long Messages Long Messages specifies how the message can be sent when the message exceeds maximum length. Truncation mode has three choices, plus a checkbox. Do not allow long messages (max. 160 characters) For each message, KPN SMS mail will send only one SMS. This SMS, and thus the message you enter, can only be 160 characters long (but see the last option in this section below). Allow long messages (max. 612 characters) Each message can be 612 characters long (4 linked SMS messages). Remember last used option KPN SMS mail will use the setting (of the two above) that was most recently used in sending a message.

This checkbox is selected by default. You can also specify the telephone number that SMS reminders should be sent to in the Notification mobile number field. Account tab Here you can change your account settings. General The Originator field shows you who registered for this service (mobile number). Account settings To change your basic account settings, click on the Register button. The registration process will restart.

41 Alerts tab KPN SMS mail issues alerts in certain situations. By default, all these alerts are enabled on the Alerts tab of the SMS Options window, as shown below. You can disable one or more alerts if you wish. Alerts are enabled if checked and disabled if unchecked. The sections below briefly describe each alert. Invalid recipients alert Alerts you when you attempt to send a SMS to a recipient who does not have a valid mobile telephone number. The alert lets you click OK to send the message to other recipients who do have valid mobile phone numbers, or Cancel to avoid sending the message at all. If this option is deselected, you will not be alerted when one or more recipients have invalid mobile phone numbers. The message will simply be sent to any recipients who do have valid numbers. Split up alert Alerts you if a SMS that you are sending will be split up into multiple messages that will be sent separately. See long messages (page 40) for details. Delete message alert Alerts you that the message will be permanently deleted when you attempt to delete a SMS from a folder.
