Contacts for instant messaging
To add contacts to the instant messaging contacts list, do the following:
1. Connect to the instant messaging service, and select IM contacts.
2. Select Options > Add contact, or if you have no contacts added,
select Add. Select Enter ID manually, Search from server, Copy from
server, or By mobile number. When the contact is successfully added,
the phone confirms it.
3. Scroll to a contact, and to start a conversation, select Chat.
Block and unblock messages
To block messages, connect to the instant messaging service, and select
Conversations > IM contacts, or join or start a conversation. Scroll to
the contact from whom you want to block incoming messages, and
select Options > Block contact > OK.
To unblock messages, connect to the instant messaging service, and
select Blocked list. Scroll to the contact from whom you want to unblock
the messages, and select Unblock.
You can also unblock messages from the contact list.
Groups
You can create your own private groups for an instant messaging
conversation, or use the public groups provided by the service provider.
The private groups exist only during an instant messaging conversation.
The groups are saved on the server of the service provider. If the server
you are logged into does not support group services, all group-related
menus are dimmed.
Public groups
You can bookmark public groups that your service provider may
maintain. Connect to the instant messaging service, and select Groups >
Public channel. Scroll to a group to which you want to chat, and select
Join. If you are not in the group, write your screen name as your
nickname for the group. To delete a group from your group list, select
Options > Delete group.
