Hello Alberto, Normally, I would agree with you, but, per your suggestion, I went into the settings and still did not find what I wanted.
iMessaging is turned on. Nor did I didn't learn anything helpful when I clicked on the link that took me to the part of the manual that talked about the iMessaging service. So I still find myself wondering why I am only being permitted to send text messages, though iMessaging is turned on and my phone is turned off.
