Begin an IM session
You can send instant messages to anyone if you have the person’s unique ID and
you use the same IM service.
To begin an IM session, do the following:

Some IM service providers also allow sending instant messages to contacts
who are not online.
To send a message to a person who is not in your contacts list, select Options,
the option to send a message, and enter the unique ID of the person.
A conversation menu is displayed, with the contact’s name displayed at the top.
2. Enter a message.
3. When you finish the message, select Send.
Receive and reply to messages
If you have an active IM conversation open and receive an instant message from the
contact with whom you are chatting, the new message notification sound plays and
the message appears in the conversation. As the conversation progresses, the most
recent message appears at the bottom of the menu, causing the previous messages
to move up if the screen is full. To reply, enter your message and select Send.
If you receive an instant message when you have the IM application open, but do
not have an active conversation open, the new message notification sound plays.
A new IM icon is displayed next to the name of the message sender under the
conversations section of the contacts list.
If you receive an instant message when you are logged in to the IM service, but do
not have the IM application open on your phone, a message is displayed telling you
that a new IM message has been received. Select Start to open the IM application,
and view the new message.
Return to chat session
From the IM contacts list, select Conversations. This list displays all IM conversations
and group chats in which you are currently participating. To view a conversation
or continue chatting, select a group name or contact name.
