Can I Forward a Whole Text Conversation to My Email on a BlackBerry Curve?

The BlackBerry Curve must be connected to a data network to forward messages.

The messaging program on a BlackBerry Curve is capable of sending both text and multimedia content, either to one person or a group of people. While you can forward any individual message on to your email address, it is not possible to send a group of messages at the same time.

Message forwarding lets you send a copy of your text, photo or video messages to an email address or the PIN of another BlackBerry user, which creates a backup copy of the information. Once the messages are forwarded, should your BlackBerry crash or become lost, you will always have the copy of your texts. Without forwarding, there is no way to access old texts should your BlackBerry lose the information.

Process

You can only forward messages one at a time. While you may have a long string of texts between you and another person, known as a conversation, at present there is no way to forward an entire conversation. To forward a message, open the message and select the "Menu" key on your phone. Click "Forward As" and choose "Email" from the options. Enter the email address information and follow the onscreen prompts to forward the message. Repeat the process for each individual message in the conversation.

Privacy

When you forward messages on your BlackBerry Curve, the sender of the original message is not informed about your action. You can forward or delete messages on your device without anyone else knowing about it. Likewise, someone may forward your messages to a friend and you will not be informed that your texts are being shared.

Consideration

BlackBerry does not permit users to forward MMS messages that contain copyright protected content. MMS messages contain photos or videos by definition, and if you do not own the rights to the content, they must remain on your device alone. Texts between you and a friend are not considered copyrighted and may be freely forwarded.
