Nortel Mobile Communication Client 3100 for Windows Mobile User Guide 95
Receiving an Instant Message
When you log on, receive instant messages regardless of what you are
currently doing on MCC 3100. When you receive an instant message, you
are alerted by an audible tone and a visual alert:
• The audible tone is controlled by the device. To select a new tone,
disable the tone, or use vibrate mode in place of the tone, refer to
your device documentation.
• The visual alert is controlled by the MCC 3100 New IM Alert
parameter. For more information on Instant Messaging, see
“Managing instant messages” on page 93.
Table 17 "Instant message alerts" on page 95 illustrates the type of
alert you receive, depending on the current state of the MCC 3100.
