Is it possible a person with a hand phone (here in Korea) can block out text messages (sms) arriving from another particular person also with a handphone if they want? I.E. their phone allows them to tell their phone service company to not accept sms text msgs from certain other handphone #'s?

Does anyone know about that personally?

Well my phone allows me to program it to block any number I dont want contacting me from contacting me. Not having any stockers, I haven't done this. I would guess if you have a newer phone, use the blocking function and see what happens. It should work.

One would imagine that with a name like yours, you'd already know the answer to your question...oops, sorry, your name is Cellphone, not Handphon. Laughing

I have blocked someone. She could not call, but could still send messages. I have not seen a phone that can block messages.

oh no, actually... hehe... well the reason I asked is because this one lady I've been seeing on and off... I tried to mail her several times on Monday but it said "not sending". Even though I mailed other people fine, her's wouldn't accept the mail (or, mail couldn't be sent from me to her). But then later that day she sends me a "what's up" mail, all is good, and then I answer her back and it goes through. So I think what happened is, over the weekend, she was with her family and didn't want such messages to go through to her while with them, and if she did indeed block it, maybe she forgot to unblock it on Monday. Cause she was cool on Mon.

Anyways thanks for letting me know, now I have an idea of what might have happened. Oh yah, yah she does have quite a new phone with camera and stuff on it, I'm pretty sure it's quite recent.
