Hi,
I have a Samsung Captivate and I can't find an option to send an MMS message meaning a text with more than 160 caracters. I can always send SMS when I select messaging and if it goes over the limit it creates more than one message, sometimes two or three....
Is there a way to send MMS and if yes how can I do it?

Thank you in advance

I'm pretty sure that the Captivate auto-determines if a message is going to be MMS or SMS.  Are you unable to create a message and insert a photo/tone/etc?

Well, I can insert a photo or anything without a problem but when my text is little longer it ends up seding 2 or more messages instead of one longer message...

the part when your text is a little longer, does this include a pic with it? bc if its just words and nothing else it wont be a mms but just a sms which will make it send out more than one message if its long enough

I can't field test this right now, but there was a work-around for the impression where you could create a blank memo, insert it into the message thereby creating an mms-style message, and then type to your heart's content and it would send it as an mms so no broken up multiple messages and just a blank attachment.
