Setting message options

You can set the message options for all messages to specify how long they remain
open before being marked as read. You can also specify how messages should be
deleted for each service that is activated on your handheld.
Note: The AutoRead and AutoRead Timer fields only appear if you have the Interactive service
on your handheld. If the fields appear on your handheld, you can set them for all messages,
regardless of the service you are using.
AutoRead: Set whether you want messages to open automatically when you remove
your handheld from the holster. The default is Yes.
AutoRead Timer: When you receive a new message and remove your handheld from
the holster, the message is marked as read after a set length of time. The default is 3
seconds. If you select Off, you must close the message before it is marked as read.
