MSN Messenger

You can use MSN ® Messenger on your Smartphone to send and receive instant messages.
MSN Messenger on your Smartphone provides the same chat environment as MSN
Messenger on your desktop computer. Features of this environment include:
Sending and receiving instant messages
Seeing the status of others in your MSN Messenger contacts list, or changing your own
status (for example, available, busy, or out to lunch)
Inviting other people to a chat
Blocking contacts from seeing your status or sending you messages

Using MSN Messenger

Before you can use MSN Messenger, you must take steps to set it up. First, you need either a
Microsoft .NET Passport account or a Hotmail account. To set up a Microsoft .NET Passport
account, go to: http://www.passport.com. Once you have this account, you need to create a
connection on your Smartphone, such as a modem or wireless connection that allows you to
connect to the Internet. (For more information on creating connections, see "Data
Connections" in section 4.1.)
Signing in and Signing out
You can sign in to MSN Messenger using your Hotmail credentials or your .NET Passport.
Once you sign in, you can create contacts and exchange instant messages with them. This is
called "chatting." Contacts must have a Hotmail or .NET Passport account and must have
MSN Messenger installed.
1. On the Home screen, press the Start soft key, and select MSN Messenger.
2. Press the Sign In soft key.
3. Enter your sign-in name (Example: name_123@hotmail.com) and password, and then
press the Sign In soft key.
4. To sign out, press the Menu soft key and select Sign out.
N O T E
Signing out closes your data connection. Be sure to sign out when finished using MSN
Messenger or your connection will remain open. This might result in additional charges from
your service provider.
