How do I Resend a Text message?

My nose must be crooked 🙂

I am a newbie to the iPhone having just bought a 3GS, but when I select 'edit' on a message I only have the option to delete or forward. So, how do you resend? Maybe its something to do with the carrier update - what is that?

That's correct. You would have to forward it to the person.

Thanks for your prompt response - but I was looking for a simpler solution as in a 'resend' button...if I have to re-select the addressee I might as well just copy the content and send a new message. In fact I would rather that the software resent failed messages without manual intervention like most other phones!!

Assuming you have 3.1 and have done the carrier update, click on "edit', follow your nose.
