Question about SMS inbox on Iphone 3G

Hi

When I go to my text messages it only shows me my sent emails, I can't see my inbox. When I then click on a sent mail, it shows me the previous text I was replying to. But how can I see all my incoming texts in one inbox like on a normal phone?

thks

Re: Question about SMS inbox on Iphone 3G

Yes, but the Iphone shows conversation threads, not individual messages. I can proobably get used to it but it's different. Is there an option to show the messages one by one, and also to view sent messages?

No threaded view is the only way, you get used to it quickly.

It takes a little while to get used to but stick with it as it does have benefits, reading all previous messages to a contact whilst writing a new one to them for example

Re: Question about SMS inbox on Iphone 3G

there as nothing to get used to for me, its logical to have messages this way, the idea of a "Normal" inbox, outbox, drafts etc etc is horrible.
