Start A Conversation - Nokia 6620 User Manual

You can send instant messages to anyone who uses the same IM service as you do,
as long as you have that person's user name. You can also add that person to IM
contacts during an IM conversation. See "IM contacts" on page 97 for more
information. More than one IM conversation can be active at the same time.
Conversations lists all active conversations by IM contact name. Select one of the
names to open the conversation with that person. The contact's name is displayed
at the top of the screen, and as the conversation progresses, the most recent message
appears at the bottom of the screen, causing the last message to move up one level.
